So what's the deal? Is the car so well balanced or underpowered it doesn't need a LSD? I did a quick search and it doesn't look like many people add one.
PSM was always a checkbox on the order form.

WRT the LSD question, is there a problem you’ve identified which one would solve? I DD my 986 year round, with winter tires in the cold & snowy months. The biggest traction related problem I have then is that the chin spoiler tends to act like a snow plow. So I don’t drive it when there is more than 5” of fresh snow on the ground.
