The only way to know is experiment a bit, but use extreme caution, and do it on a track, or at least far from other motorists, pedestrians, and solid objects to hit. ( and police)

My thoughts, based on my '06 2.7 w/ PSM, your '01 may be slightly different. I find the PSM very intrusive in slow speed corners, 1st and 2nd gear, such as pulling out of a stop street with heavy throttle application. It cuts the throttle much too early, though this is great if your not paying attention, and for cold conditions with summer tires.

With PSM off: with a short wheelbase, and lots of rear traction, when you do get the rear to step out, you have to have quick hands, while avoiding over-correction. The most important part is to also take that correction out quickly. If you leave in opposite lock too long, it will snap back with a vengence, and lead to an out-of-control tank-slapper!
