IMHO, this is a great way to devalue your car. Y'all have fun with it.

HUH? By swapping the shock control module which can easily be reversible? It is certainly not the cheapest mod but for track purposes the most gain for the ease of install.

I was looking for a stiffer ride for Track mode- ran Sonoma this weekend and I know I highly need proper seats/harness/bar but wondering if there is a tighter setting than “Track”. The DCS has gotten high reviews in the Porsche community and hoping for similar here.

A few basic facts about the DSC Sport controller module:
1. it replaces the factory module entirely. That means you can swap from one to the other by unplugging one and plugging in the other one whenever you want. You can run the DSC at the track and the OEM module on the drive home. You won't want to, though.
2. they don't calibrate like regular shocks. It's a whole new world. They start with a double triple adjustable shock with high, medium and low speed settings for compression and separately for rebound.
3. in addition to the velocity settings, they have settings for driving mode, speed, steering angle, acceleration, braking and g-force loading longitudinally and laterally. There's even a drag launch mode.
4. you have the damping setting you need when you need it. For instance, different settings are active for braking, corner entry, mid-corner and exit. Unlike regular shocks, you don't have to compromise on one setting to do it all.
5. within those separate settings, there's a gradation of damping - hard braking is different from soft braking, flat throttle is different from feathering it.
6. because the damping adapts at high speed, you don't have to live with stiff shocks when you don't need them. Fatigue is less of a factor.
7. Ford Performance says that the DSC module is the only worthwhile upgrade on the GT350R. Source: 50Deep at SEMA.

Yes I have it and the post you saw might have been mine. I really like it.

Here's a screen shot of the velocity tuning screen. You can see the row of tabs across the top.
Here's a link to the setup manual: http://www.dscsport.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/DSC-Sport_Software-User-Manual.pdf
You can see all the settings and calibration parameters.

I love when software is so high quality they even leave the default App icon on it. Tuning software never has ANY polish to it. It's like they couldn't take 30 seconds to apply the icon properly.
I know that being pretty doesn't make it better, but it helps at least inspire confidence in your product when it doesn't look like "Little Tommy's First Application"
