now maybe its me but if I run SportPlus in Manual PDK mode, using the paddle shifters, it seems more perky than doing the same in Sport mode, except of course there are only 6 gears available?

Yes shifting and throttle response are much more aggressive then in sport.

but I would never use Sportplus in PDK Auto, its kinda undriveable

Sport Plus is essentially track mode. Great on track, bad on street; at least with the PDK. Since adding SC/SP to my manual 981, I exclusively drive in Sport Plus. It's much better at rev matching than I am, and the car just feels better both on and off throttle.

In auto mode, the original programming for Sport+ was to only shift at redline.

With the revised programming from the recall, its MUCH more streetable. It's very aggressive but shifts based on throttle position and current speed in terms of holding the gear.

thks & WOW!! after 8 years I never knew the car would truly kick me in the back upshifting @ WOT in manual with Sport Plus, its almost like my F430 Scuderia, if I do the same in Sport its simply a linear change

Richard.

this is one of the best revelations since I bought the car as the sport plus in auto mode is just manic/silly but in PDK manual its fantastic

I cant believe you are just now figuring this out Richard! What have you been doing all these years? Sports + in manual mode was the only way my car was ever driven for nearly a decade.

It honestly feels faster too as if its an enhanced tune level

Did you code this in yourself? I have a 2015 and would love to add this.

Sport+ and paddles = kick in the face when I shift WOT.
My passenger was shocked at the lurch.
I said ssssssssh just enjoyyyyyyy

Richard.

now I have discovered this, I simply cannot stop driving the car, Sportplus in Manual PDK, with larger carbon paddle shifters, go girls
