Do the control actuators of the Non PSE exhaust open and close between the different driving modes?

I'm in the process of ordering my car. After reading this thread I'm not sure I should order the car with PSE. Ultimately I plan on doing catless downpipes so the non-pse system with the manual functionality that can be opened and closed at will should be ideal.
Any thoughts/advice would be greatly appreciated

If you plan to go catless, order it with nonPSE. Get the DME Mapping done to get the exhaust button for like $100. Done n simple.
Personally I am glad I didn't get PSE.

Its solid advice from Vixcan who has also taken the time to assist me. Ive also confirmed his learnings with my local dealer thats its a very quick programming job via the PIWIS III software and your set. Ive ordered a full Akrapovic system with link pipes and am glad I didnt waste money on a PSE option only to remove it from my car upon delivery. Im planning to get a Litchfield ECU remap down the track thus why Ive moved this way with an aftermarket exhaust.
That said many users have been very happy with their PSE choices which by the end of the exercise is more cost effective than a full Akrapovic or equivalent system with link pipes. You also need to change the rear diffuser which is relatively costly in order to suit your new exhaust tips, as the non PSE diffuser has different openings. All things to consider.
Best of luck either way 👍

Vixcan, thanks for your hard work and sharing this info. Excuse the newbie question as I am new to the 992 platform.
I am planning to buy a TTS and like the quad system look better and plan to do after market exhaust.
991 valved systems are around $4K with the ability to be catless and that includes tips. 992 system would not need tips as they are no longer connected to the exhaust system so hopefully it should be cheaper
.
Seems like a no brainer then to not go with PSE but do you know if the after market valved system connect to the Porsche OEM connections which would mean they can then be activated like the PSE system?
