Sport mode without Sport Chrono (Tequipment)
Anyone else get an e-mailshot similar to this?
Basically seems they are offering a retro-fit, putting the buttons on for activating sport mode to cars without Sport Chrono being specced.
Enhance the performance of your Porsche at the touch of a button
The new Sport mode Tequipment packages, which are available to retro fit on sports cars without the Sport Chrono Package, activate Porsche control systems to intentionally shift towards greater agility and driving performance.
With the ‘Sport’ mode selected, Porsche Stability Management (PSM) interventions take place later than in ‘normal’ mode allowing you to manoeuvre the car with greater agility at its performance limits. For Porsche models equipped with Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK), the ‘Sport Plus’ mode activates a launch control function ensuring maximum acceleration.
Both functions involve remapping the engine management software to increase the torque and performance, however, since these have been exclusively designed and tested by the Porsche engineers at Weissach, your Porsche warranty remains completely unchanged with the fitment of Sport mode or Sport Plus mode at our Porsche Centre.

SPORT mode (manual and PDK vehicles) Activated using the additional SPORT button on the centre console, Sport mode selects a sportier configuration to the throttle response whilst adjusting the rev limiter to a higher setting. At the same time PASM (Porsche Active Suspension Management) offers a harder damper setting and more direct steering that gives better road holding. In conjunction with PCM (Porsche Communication Management), the Sport mode function also includes personal memory for a light, wiper, air conditioning and door lock settings. £695 (inc. VAT and fitment). |

SPORT PLUS mode (PDK vehicles only) In conjunction with PDK, the additional SPORT PLUS button on the centre console activates the ‘Launch Control’ function (racing start), which ensures you achieve the fastest possible rate of acceleration from a standing start. £899* (inc. VAT and fitment). *911 (Type 997) Turbo model price on request. |
