I use both the sport and aggressive maps. I haven't tried the High torque aggressive map, I am not a fan of high torque for the track, the TC light comes on too often even in abrasive surfaces and new tires, and actually slows you down, you end up having to lift. I use the maps mainly to benefit from the higher RPM limit, it comes handy in certain situations.

I did not like COBB PDK sport after installing it because it not as smooth like OEM. Sam told me to do the PDK re-learn to let the car readjust itself to my driving style. After I did the PDK re-learn, the car shifting smooth it out quiet a bit. That is why I said do the PDK re-learn anyway regardless of what map you install/uninstall.

Did the 93 Octane tune w/PDK Sport on my 991.1TTS this afternoon. Of course Sam was there for every step of the way! Still giggling from my last test drive! If you want to put around and buy groceries, just leave it in Normal mode ( which bored me to tears before the Tune/PDK Upgrade ) and it's now like Sport mode once was. I love the firmer "let's get it done" shifting in Sport when your getting on it a little more! Sport Plus & Launch Control?, well if you don't at least chuckle out loud, you have no soul! 😆😂😂

Awesome! Glad to hear it. If some cars need a little extra love or calibration it's awesome that the AP puts that power in our hands at home!

I was able to do the PDK re-learn with the beta firmware, currently using the torque aggressive map...it is working good and I have even used LC with no issues.

My TTS is still hibernating. Hopefull that weather will break in the next 3-4 weeks where I am.
I have some updates I will do as soon as I wake the car up, Michelin 4S (not a fan of the Pzeros) are in and waiting to go on, put RS Flared side skirts on already during a not so freezing day, and have Aerokit front spoiler and DB Carbon rear valance to go on.
Once the little cosmetic mods are done I would like to do the AP. Sounds like most are happy with the PDK upgrade especially after relearn. I am a former TT owner who has tuned before.
Can I get some feedback on the engine tune and behavior itself. Does the car feel much faster, what characteristics shown in Normal, Sport and Sport Plus, Launch Control behavior, and useable for track etc... Thanks everyone in advance.
