It's my guess that Porsche set SC up to default back to Normal for faster warm-up. It certainly does warm up faster in Normal mode than either Sport modes

I don't think I need Waze anymore so this will clean up the cockpit immensely.

I'll be figuring out more of the benefits of adding Online Services and Aha functionality in the next few weeks.
Does AHA provide hazard and Police warnings like Waze?

I've noticed this too. I assume Porsche has their reasons (as do BMW, etc.) for not letting cars 'default' back to Sport/Sport+ upon turn over. I think we're supposed to let them warm up some before blasting off in Sport/S+, which I used to not do, but certainly do now. Doesn't take that long.

Could also be for fuel economy reasons, in the same way that PDK in ‘normal’ mode tries to maximise fuel efficiency by early upshifts etc. The theory may be that a car in ‘normal’ mode on average consumes less fuel compared to when it’s in ‘Sport’ or ‘Sport Plus’ mode...

Please do- I'm looking at putting on this exhaust, possibly with the headers as well. It looks like a quality product and the stuff I've heard/seen online is quite good!

Fitment was seriously top notch. I was surprised how well everything literally slipped right on and everything was really well built. Looks great and Sounds great!

I had another exhaust (not SOUL) on my 997 and man, it was HELL installing it, None of the couplers fit properly, the pipes didn't even line up right, the clamps were too small, and i had to bang half the exhaust on with rubber mallets and then the exhaust tips didn't even go on their own exhaust. It was very high name reputable company too!

Nicer than expected. Had a little buyers remorse right after I hit buy. All that was alleviated when I saw the piece and installed it. It’s perfect.
