What does one have to do with the other? The mode is irrelevant. The driving behavior is what is relevant.
In manual transmission i agree its irrelevant, but for PDK i believe sport and sportplus keep the rev/rpm higher on each gear so that you are always on-boost.
In manual transmission is our right foot the keep the rev on-boost

Thats is an illogical statement. While a PDK will shift at higher rpms in sport mode, the engine speed itself is commanded by your right foot, as in MT, and has nothing to do with ‘mode’. Avoiding high engine speed and increased engine load (hence demand for more power / boost) is accomplished by easier application of the throttle in any mode, regardless of gearbox.

It's relevant because sport mode opens up the air ducts to the heat exchangers and prevents the oil from warming up as quickly as possible. I generally drive in normal mode until oil temp is up to ~160
Question for you all. I wasn't sure where else to ask and wasn't sure if this was new thread worthy.
I just put a valved catback on my 24 C2S and I am getting a cell for the exhaust valve position. the valves when "off" are fully open like they should be stock. I am assuming the diameter or angle of the pipe on the aftermarket catback is slightly different. I have the Cargraphic controller and when set to follow the OEM valve programming the valves keep cycling to test open/close. It did not act this way with the controller on the stock exhaust. I know the valve can be re-learned at the dealer and that's not an issue if I have to go to the dealer... but I have access to an Autel MaxiPRO MP900-BT with the latest Porsche update from them. I was wondering if any of you knew if it was possible to do the relearn with this or a similar tool. I searched through the different modules and menus on the device, but nothing stood out for the exhaust. I haven't been able to find anything via Google either.
Thanks for your time,
Nick
You have mis-installed the actuator(s). The system looks for the valves to be OPEN when the ignition is off. If you install the one or both of the valves so it is closed, you will get cycling. Do- over time.

Shiftpoints are higher in sport mode. So engine will work at higher rpm until geabox will switch a gear. Even at small foot pressure.
Pretend like you actually enjoy driving your sports car and manually shift your automatic..... Problem solved. I never drive my dual-clutch evo in automatic, and in that platform it is advised to always have it in "Super-Sport", which I'm guessing would be sport+ in Porsche, because the higher clamp pressure on the clutches reduces wear. No idea if that translates to Porsche but I wouldn't be surprised.
Yep, PDK in Sport+ and manual mode is the 992 party trick imho! Definitely ups the engagement in a big way without a fiddly third pedal when in traffic. All the never PDK crowd should give it a whirl before deciding

Neither of those points matter. Drive reasonably until the car heats up. The mode is irrelevant.
@sitetech using PIWIS, in Kombi, enable (I think):Werkseinstellung Menükonfiguration Performance

It will then appear as menu option in PCM which you can enable to show on the right screen of the dashboard. Unfortunately no data is displayed, and I've not been able to find a DME (or other controller) setting that 'produces' the data. @John Mclane was successful on his '20, but I've never seen it done successfully enabled on other non-GT 992. Please share any discoveries you may unlock.

What car you do have? My '24 GTS hows the graphs for power and torque and works just fine. I didn't have to code anything on it.
