I'd like to introduce my self, my name is Donald this is my first post hello to all my mid engine Porsche brothers and sisters. I've joined this forum because I'm in need of help trying to make my 1998 986 pass smog in Ca. I know there's been a lot of guys running Subaru power on here. (I found this car half done while looking for a 914 to do a Subaru transplant) it was to cheap and ran and drove so here I am. I'm running a 2000 ej25 sohc adapted to my stock 986 G86/00 5 speed. The Porsche gear box has no neutral switch so I keep getting a P01597 code and then that leads to idle control faults as well. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Connect a bogus switch through the clutch pedal switch. Have a relay trigger it when you push in the clutch. ECU should only look for it while starting.

So you think it should only have power while cranking? I have no relay hooked to my clutch switch but have power to that switch with ignition switch on.
