I recently installed a DSC unit in 991.2 GT3RS with FAL. Thank you to Derek, Ben and crew @JRP in Mississauga, Ontario for all your help.
The cars suspension definitely feels different. The car feels wider, like I have an extra few inches of tire, or grip on either side. Testing the car on the track I would say 0.50 to 0.60 improvement in lap times at Mosport.
Drove the car car last night on the street. Steering wheel doesn’t jump around, car feels smoother and wants to party all the time...

Installed the unit last night. Took 5 minutes despite having to work around my rollbar. No immediate issues. Drove the car today and again no issues. On the street, the right is much more compliant even with sports suspension activated. It is very much like driving the McLaren in regards to handling the bumps and road seams. If this had been installed in the RS, I would have purchased the RS instead of the GT 3. Definitely makes it more comfortable to drive on the street. The car seems to handle better on the on ramp test. Appears to be more immune to bumps steer and tire hop. Will give more in-depth report on handling aspects after next week when I spend 2 days of the track

Any warranty issues or accelerated wear of parts with these devices? Just starting to research it as I’ll be tracking my GT3 a lot starting next year.
thanks

Regarding accelerated wear on dampers, there's none that's measurable from our testing on dyno, street, and track. And not one single user in 7 years has reported a faulty damper from using DSC. The electronic dampers have electro-magnet like on fuel injectors, the electro-magnet have a long service life. Hope this helps.

I had warranty repairs on both my GT3 and GT3 RS and brought in Turbo S for service with DSC installed, all at 3 different dealerships, and no one brought up DSC. Although it probably makes sense to swap back to stock in case Porsche wants to do any software updates on the car.

Met Tom at Summit, he offered to let me test the DSC and then I informed him that I already the unit. Felt very good on the track and interestingly, made the curbs seem very smooth and much less drama with weight transfer on the car. Don't know what a good time at Summit Main course but my best time was a 1:20 on Day 2, first time at the track.

I'm at Sebring and installed DSC and like it...but now my ESC and ESC+TC buttons will not light up red to turn of the stability and traction control.
I uninstalled DSC and put stock box back in and still ESC OFF OR ESC+TC OFF button no longer work.
My 2018 991.2 GT3 has FAL and it works and so does the sport button and the shock button....
Anyone???
