The ride is firmer, I am returning my module tho because it is having faulty issues and no one at cec or techart can figure out why. By faulty I mean it doesn't always go into park mode, thus the main reason for having the techart module...

But as for the ride, even if in the future they fix the faults I will not go back to the drop. I do not like the ride quality difference. I sure this might be highly debated, but I noticed the difference.

as for the wheels they come stock on the Turbo S. I got the dealership to swap out the sport technos that originally came on the car for the 21"s for $500. which I dont know if any other dealership would do for that cheap.

does the ride only sometimes go into park mode when locked? thats so strange

mine only drops to park mode if i am in the low driving setting when locked

if i am in the middle setting that feature is not activated

well the front always goes down in park but the rear almost always never. and yes I know it has to be in low mode not normal. Thanks though.

Looks great. I just don't know what you're thinking putting a front plate on a car of that class...

I just had CEC install a TA Module on my CTT and it works great. I wonder if the oversize wheels are the issue? I hope they get it figured out.

It looks good!

TECHART modules are not spliced in boxes to trick the factory suspension control unit. They are replacement Bosch computers with new software.
Porsche is constantly updating their software so TECHART's software engineers are always revising their code with the goal of having one up-to-date module that is backwards compatible. Basic but the delay often leaves the newest vehicles with strange issues like this. TECHART are currently working on the 5th software revision.

Because it's the law in California no matter what "class" of vehicle it is.

I should know because I got a ticket for it once.

BTW. To the OP "Los Angeles"... Beautiful Cayenne and equally beautiful home.
