PSE on all the time
I have the original PSE with deactivation switch on my 996 Carrera. I recently bought a PSE relay and put a switch on it so i can have the sports mode ON at all times . I believe with this mod the deactivation switch ( not on the relay but on the central console) still works. I plan to install this modded relay this week, has anyone done it ? any need for precautions, any risk ( apart from getting shot by neighbours ) or anything i need to be cautious about ?
I am not sure if i want to have the sports mode ON at ALL times, has anyone done it here with the PSE ? ( there are different type of hacks but i think the relay one is the best btw)

Unless euro 996's are wired differently, my factory PSE switch is on all the time. Pressing it turns it to quiet mode (with the switch illuminated). Are you sure that you're not confusing it with the way it works on the 997's? Those have it set to off as a default.

i think what he means is the auto on feature at low speeds. I think he is trying to defeat the auto feature. with that being said, OP, there is a much easier way to do that. You can cut a diode wire in the relay and it will accomplish what you are trying to do. Do a search on here for PSE relay and you'll find the thread that I am talking about.

My PSE is on at all times as well and I can deactivate it completely with the central console switch on ( lights on for exhaust off ) BUT havent you 996 PSE owners noticed that the PSE is actually not ON at certian low speeds and revs ( 30 to 45 mph) ? There is a profile on when its on , hence the chipped relay and and why other PSE owners have done this and/or other hacks to keep it ON all at ALL times....

and thats what i have done but instead of cutting this diode i put a switch on it . My question is really if anyone else has done this , if any issues and if worth it / made a noticeable difference . I will try it anyways since i bought a second relay and did this mod on it but was wondering if anyone else here has done this mod as well

Back when i had my n/a 996 I did the diode method and loved it. I would turn the PSE sometimes when I went to work early so as not to disturb the neighbors.
