I had this installed on my "08 Boxster S today at a local Porsche specialty shop. The last steps of the instructions say to have the engine computer accessed and enable the sport exhaust. What I know now is that the bypass pipes are open when I have the sport button on.

My question: Does anyone know if the computer part is only to activate the feature that opens the bypass pipes more as the RPMs increase?

The reason I am asking is that I have to go to a dealer for that and really do not mind spending the extra money but if it is fully bypassed with the button on I like it like this and would probably skip the computer part.
Thanks,
Mike
