How it would work with stiff parking lots? I've selecting sport when I go in/out of stiff parking lot to be safe. Will I get any benefit on this situations?
Since everything else will be great improvement with DSC V3, I wanted to check if it's going to be better or worse.

Just in case if anyone is in market for DSC V3, I have brand new one with GT3 Touring file pre-loaded on sale.
(It's currently back-ordered from DSC at the moment)

PS. For anyone looking for a slightly tighter ride, I highly recommend the calibration file I posted earlier that is from another Forum member. I have run it now for a few weeks, over crappy city roads, and I am preferring it to the GT3 Tour file in Sport Mode. Sure it could just be placebo effect but it does feel better to me. It is almost too stiff at times on very, very bad roads, but that was where I wanted to originally get with the DSC as I found my PASM way too floaty. Another reason why again this DSC Sport module is worth every penny and too me one of the top mods anyone should consider.
Downloading and going to push to the DSC module today and play around. Happy Easter to me, thanks for posting!

Default Front Axle Lift issue...

I will start by saying that I absolutely love my DSC v 3 with the GT3 Touring program. It is wonderful on the road and makes a huge improvement driving over bad roads. Also love how the car takes curves, and everything else.

My only minor issue is that when I have the front axle lift enabled, it feels like instead of suspension the car is on bricks. There is like no suspension travel at all. Going over minor bumps feels and sounds like it is a solid steel rod instead of having a suspension. I know, it is a small price to pay, but I don't know if anyone else have experienced this. Now I have to remember to enable FAL when needed, and also to turn it off right away after it is used instead of leaving it on until it goes back down automatically for fear of feeling the harsh bumps on the road.

DSC should be restocking their units for anyone interested in Mid April. Let us know if we can be of assistance.

Thank you for your feedback. Glad you love your DSC V3!

The FAL works the same with or without DSC. With FAL in up position the factory hydraulic platform lifts the coil springs to"top out" the damper. A topped out damper + compressed spring + the 300 psi of hydraulic pressure is essential performs like a solid block of metal.

I registered and downloaded DSC Tuner 1.9.3 Installer but I keep getting error and can't install on my windows 10 home edition laptop.
I restarted my machine and downloaded fresh installer but it didn't help. Does anyone have same issue?
I contacted DSC Sport but no one seems to answer any of my emails.

Same problem. I had the GT3 touring loaded when I bought it so have not bothered to use software to change the DSC but I get the same error when I registered;

That is not true. I answer 100+ emails each day and work in the shop. I didn't yet get to the emails from the evening.

I am sorry to hear you guys are having difficulty with downloading software. We haves extensively tested the download on our own PC's repeatedly to make sure that it works. Typically when it doesn't download correctly is when a step is missed by accident. We have put a lot time into making these videos to cover all steps. Please watch these videos and follow the steps exactly and will work. The only other exception would be if there is a security setting on your PC that blocks the program, which then would require the user to change security setting at their discretion. Dozens of user download each day successfully, it does work.

I will add my two cents that I have installed the software on 3 different PC notebooks to date without any issues. I also don't recall reading about others having software download issues prior to making my purchase.

In Tom's defense as well, from day one I have received nothing but spot on customer service and replies. Many of those replies have come from him even after hours, which is crazy, but does not go unnoticed. I would never have expected the level of service I have received when I bought this, and have zero complaints. I know Tom also must get many, many of the same basic questions and probably is more than a little tired of answering them over and over and over, but I have nothing but great things to say about the service from him and the product. It would likely be the top mod I would suggest to any new owner.

Totally agree.
I've installed on an old windows 8 laptop and on windows 10 in a VM on an old Macbook Pro and both worked with no problems
And I agree, best first mod to do on a 991!

Tom helped me to resolve my issue!
It looks like 'right click and run as administrator' was the key. I was trying to run/install by just double clicking it. Didn't realize there's a different way to run/install.
Maybe it's my Mac guy's mentality issue since I never had that in Mac.
Tom is really great guy. He answered all of my emails/PMs to make sure I can get it running!
