Fellow LE S owner here saying Hi.

Maytag is correct in that Porsches do not have robust clutches when it comes to drag race launches. They're just not designed for that. There are plenty of threads here and on P-9 where guys have ruined them after 1 night of street "activity". If you're curious what it will do, make 1 run and call it good. I would recommend always leaving PSM on unless you're a serious racer.
