Is that with or without sport mode engaged? Should be different in each mode (which is why I like PSE, different flavors in different modes, and 2 extra if you have SC).

I bought a 2015 S MT without it... drove it for two months and then decided to add PSE (buying parts from Suncoast) and had dealer install. It’s absolutely intoxicating and worth every penny. I can assure you that’s it will be the best add you could do to a N/A 991.1 IMO.

The fake overrun sounds drove me crazy on the 911-50th. It's why I sold it. On any Carrera 991.1 id opt for no PSE. Thankfully they don't do that silliness on GT cars and on the 991.2 you can configure the ridiculous burbles off in the individual drive mode.

Have it on mine and it stays on all the time. Didn’t think much about it until after purchasing the car, but my sales guy did say that I would love it. And I do.

The only time I do not use my PSE is when I forget to push in the button . . .

Coming home yesterday afternoon there were about 10-12 neighbourhood kids playing street hockey. I had to come to a stop to let them move their nets out of the road. They, of course, said "nice car" and all of that, but what was really great is after I got past them, just a little bit of throttle in 1st gear and then let off to allow the burbles/backfire noises. *that* was what those kids thought was so cool.

I don't care if it's childish or whatever, it does put a smile on my face, and certainly my 3 & 5 year old kids love the sound... and so did all those neighbour kids

I never drive without my PSE on. Maybe only when coming late at night not to bother the neighbours. It's a must have, sounds amazing with my top down on the targa ;-)

I prefer the look of the non-PSE pipes
