It is absolutely possible to have the 'Sport Mode SW' installed post purchase, by your dealer. I did exactly that with my '12 Cayman R PDK, that I ordered without Sport Chrono as I did not want the dash 'wart' nor the audio package that must be optioned in conjunction with the Sport Chrono. I had my dealer install the Sport Mode software which includes the software itself, plus the 'Sport' and 'Sport+' buttons. While I have used Launch Control a few times, the real bonus is the vastly improved PDK shifting and throttle response.
