Hello,

that sounds logical to me. The question is if the additional catalysators can be switched off in the software. If it would be a Mercedes i could tell you how to do that, but i don't have access to a Porsche PIWIS system with developer mode.

So i see two options. You have to check if you can reflash the ECU with an eupopean software version or you can check if it's possible to modify the parameters so that the cats are switched off.

Regards, Markus
