When Sport Crono is activated, does it changes anything to PSM?
I heard is like pressing the PSM button and turn it off (also its still active but much less).
Is this true?
This has been discussed a few times if you do a search.
With Sport Chrono on it sets the parameters higher before PSM intervenes allowing you to play with the car more. If you turn PSM "off" using the button it is off, but lurks in the background until ABS activates on one wheel (two wheels if Sport Chrono is in Sport Mode).
Yes, Sport Chrono when put into sport mode, raises the threshold of PSM intervention. It raises it further when PSM is turned off and Sport Chrono is in sport mode.
There have been very long and detailed threads on this subject just in the last few weeks - I would recommend a search on "Sport Chrono" and you'll find a lot to read on the subject here. Also, Porsche's Website has lots of detailed information on how all this works - a little research there, would yield big dividends for you,

I didnt have Sport crono, and drive in the twisty mountain roads, PSM has saved me many times, at least once every time I go drive the twisties.
Now that I have the sport crono will it be more dangerous for me?
If PSM activates later than before, maybe that later will be too late?
Thats what I worry about.
I driven it a little and already been sliding the rear en on places I didnt used to.
It's only as dangerous as you make it - please remember that if PSM is kicking in, then you're doing things that make the car's brain feel it should intervene - that should mean that you should be taking a good hard look at what your doing in those situations to make it do that... no matter what, PSM is not magic and will not overcome the laws of physics. Please be careful, there's a point where nothing, even PSM will not save you.

I still have not driven a car with the Sport Crono but, according to Porsche information (if memory serves), the sport mode of the SC is only for speeds upto 44 mph.
Huh? Sport mode works throughout the speed range of the car - I'm really not sure what you're referring to here... you also might want to refer to the other threads listed down below under "similar threads."

Many thanks for not living near me.
The key word is "particularly" vs "only". It does work through the entire range.
