In PSE OFF the valves open above about 3000 rpm, which means it goes into the same condition as in the PSE ON mode. In PSE OFF the valves are closed below about 3000 rpm and the car is quieter, but at high revs there is no difference between OFF and ON. At least that's how it works on my car.

You will always find the controlling freaks which impose for the sake of some higher good.....or at least according to them.
Order is imperative, but we have gone overboard with overwhelming rules and regulations which only prompt more of them. What ever happened to personal responsabilty.
My 996 has a muffler bypass and it is great to hear that revving engine.....take that away and a great part of the emotion involved with motor racing shall fade.

I really love the 991 PSE. Kind of makes me wonder why I'm putting Fabspeed side maxflo mufflers on for a bit more sound, but what the heck. I'm super-curious to experience what that will be like in person.. (we are leaving the PSE workings untouched and completely intact, just like Darren did)
There is another option for replacing side mufflers from DESIGN TEK Secondary Muffler BYPASS, dont know what to do yet.
how was your experience?

As you pass the decimeter, drop the throttle back or short shift. I know, not as fun, especially when you are chasing someone down, but better than no track day.
We have same restrictions here at our track near Vancouver.

Yes it does.
It's similar to PSE in that somewhere between 3-4K it opens the valves automatically.
The valves then stay open a while until the car goes back to a cruising state at low RPM.
What PSE gives you different (via the PSE Switch and S modes) is that the valves open at low RPM, instead of waiting until they open automatically from high RPM.
That lets you get all the pops and gurgles while tooling around town, which seems to be what people like about PSE.
Even if you close the valves on PSE (using the switch or by driving in normal mode) it only affects low RPM driving, as the valves still open at high RPM.
