Default Adding Sport Chrono Functions possible??

I'm a new C4S owner. The used 2020 I bought does not have the Sport Chrono Package. I'd like to know if any of the functions of the package can be added after the fact.
I apologize if an ignorant question.

There's a lot to that Sport Chrono Package including PADM (dynamic engine mounts). The Sport Chrono cars get a different wiring harness. It's not practical or cost effective to retrofit it to a car that didn't come with it.

Thanks. Are there any portions that can be done with coding?

For me personally Sport Chrono and PSE is a must and really helps resale (faster sale) down the road.

Back in the 997 days Porsche did offer the software parts as a dealer fitted option. Worth asking I guess.

I had this same problem - reading through these and other forums it's pretty clear that Porsche won't do it and would you trust this to a 3rd party company? if you could find one to do it.
It is a shame as I think the Sports+ Mode is just a software tweak, although all the rest is hardware.

Tbh I've just come to terms with it - you're only losing Sports+ and launch control - which I personally never used in my previous Porsche anyway. I wouldn't worry about resale in the current market either.
