Please feel free to post the screen shots. Just before the local track closed for the season last year, I experimented with adding even more Rear Rebound than what's shown in the " 991 RS file" in the BRAKE table for 918/718 GT4. It made the rear super planted during hard braking by slowing down the rate of the rear suspension lifting. This approach was also amazing on my RS with the monstrous PFC Brake Kit allowing for later braking by making the rear tires do more work. I tried adding more Rear Bound in the past by doing it in VELOCITY table, while that approach was effective during braking, it added a little bit of push during the ending phase of exit because the rear was too held down(power down was awesome though! #causeandeffect). With DSC it is so amazing that I can tune by isolating braking event.

    Hi William,
    Thanks for your inquiry. Yes, we have a limited supply of DSC controllers for this quarter. Unfortunately, there's no discount. We are paying more for microchips and circuit board build labor than ever before. It's insane, actually.
    Regards,
    Tom

    I saw your post on Rennlist.com regarding the DSC controllers being back in stock.

    I thought I’d ask if there was a promo code for the DSC V3 Controllers ?



    Thanks Bill

They are worth the full price of admission. I love a good discount as much as the next guy but the DSC is worth it. Waiting on my second one to arrive.....

After 20,000+ miles with DSC, and a lot of seat time in various TPC cars, it's worth every penny—you're not paying for a control box; you're paying for some of the best knowledge in the business.

What I'd love to know from Tom is whether TPC has cooked up a suspension hardware setup it likes for the 991.2 Carrera/S/T this side of Tractive dampers, because I'd love to find a linear-rate alternative to TechArt springs—and maybe consider ARBs too. Want to keep my Carrera a comfortable street car, not a track car…but would love to add some of the magic I've experienced in Mike's setups over the years.

You shouldn't need it per Tom's post here: https://rennlist.com/forums/991/1101...l#post17841262

But if for whatever reason you do still want it, I have it. PM me.

Yes, def clears it up. Thanks!! But leads to another Question…..does the new RS calibration supersede the GT3 Touring file?

@DSC Sport @Tom@TPC Racing sorry to bring this up again, but I don't think this line of questions was answered. Is there a way to get the updated firmware for pre-01/2021 v3 controllers?
