PDK tune - yes. I primarily use normal now in auto mode after my PDK tune. And sport is closer to sport plus. But I still use manual more than auto.

I was reading up on the PDK Tune last night, seems like a potentially worthwhile investment.

And if you get it, there are various degrees of "aggression". Can't remember all of them but PDK+, sport, aggressive (mine is on sport - which seemed the best for my use case).. But stock was the worst

Is your PDK Tune the one Cobb sells or did Sam do it as part of the package?

I got my tunes from Sam - PDK and then Stage X (started with stage 2 - now Stage 4).

I was looking for more of a quicker engine response not necessarily different shift points. Did just an engine tune affect this.

I'm sure it would. Driving mine 'stock' in Sport+ on track in manual mode, since I have all my shift points memorized, the engine stays where you want it to be in the power band, and the power delivery is instantaneous. Certainly can't tell you're driving a 'quad' Turbo car!
