I haven't tested them side by side, but I'm pretty sure that even with PSE off, it's still louder than the standard exhaust, but not obnoxious.

I had the sport exhaust installed in my13 Boxster S. It was louder than stock even when off. And it droned below 3k rpms when on in normal mode. Off, there was no drone.

Thanks guys. I will have to test it before purchase. As long as it is not too loud when turned off it will be fine.
Is it true that the PSE is engaged on start up even when it is switched off in the cabin?

Cell phone mic doesn't really do justice.
In cabin it's fairly muted unless you're hard on the throttle. People say it's loud on the outside but I disagree. I think it should have came that loud stock. Definitely more comparable to the NA sound now.
Downshifts that bring the car up into high RPMS are extremely violent(backfires). I've had friends text me saying the noise scared the crap out of them. Prior to the install a 13 C4S with PSE was louder, now the GTS is a notch above. I"m just so happy there's no drone.

PSE is one of those options that is on plenty of cars so it shouldn't be hard to hear it before deciding. Inside vs outside is quite different too. And of course the 991.2 cars sound different (not saying better or worse, just different) than the 991.1 cars.

MT with PSE is fun. Don't know how or if you can free rev when PDK is engaged but free revving MT with PSE on is a lot of fun (for me at least).

I wouldn't mind a slighly deeper tone to the sound inside the cabin and not so much outside. And without pops and crackles.
There are aftermarket options but they all sound pretty loud in video/audio clips. I need to hear one in person. I don't want to be a gunea pig with something like a Tubi in my 991.2 4s.

Since I am using the OEM PSE muffler, yes I can still control the loudness of the car with the PSE button.
Very loud when I want, and very quiet when I want. Highly suggested!
