power steering plus necessary?
#17
I just realized I am precisely who Porsche engineered the 991 for. Tried an '09 4S.. great but no medium for just cruising around with coffee. Tried a '13 Audi S5 in between and very nice car but too soft. I engage sport exhaust after I leave our neighborhood. I wish I could be like oh yeah, I can tell a difference when im pushing it but really don't notice and I started riding motorcycles on a Honda z50 at age five in the early 70's. Its amazing to me that people have a night and day reaction to power steering plus but here is the proof right in this thread. Wild stuff
... S5
...sport exhaust...
...Honda z50 at age 5
What are you on about matey?
Cripes! Just as well that some people express their opinion as black and white and get to the point!

I have it on my 991 S. Not a big deal...only few bucks.
BUT i like it very much. I live in Italy and often i have to maneuvre in small places and this aid is very comfortable.
I sugest ii as something more to put on a car. Not a question of life and death.

Is the standard steering (effort required to turn) lighter on the 991 than it was on the 997?
I test drove the 991 with PS Plus and I liked it but it's not on my order for some reason (either the salesman or I missed it in the final version of the order).
Now I will be getting a 991 without it. I'm just wondering if it will be lighter than the 997?

I don't see effort required as an issue at all in turning a 991 steering without power steering plus. For effort to be an issue you would need to be really, really weak. I mean it, just extreeeemely weak! Even your girlfriend/wife should easily be able to turn it.

+1 I drove cars with and without and had to ask the Dealer which was which. It was not noticeable to me.

I don't have PSP, but I think I would like it...
Is it something that the dealer can program into my car?
I have the standard electromagnetic steering...
Sorry for dragging out an old thread!

All PSP does is make your car feel like a Lexus at slow speeds. It is electric power steering just like the standard steering, it just makes it so you can twirl your wheel with your pinky in the parking lot if you like that.
