Difference between Sport and Sport+ when driving in manual mode
C4S PDK.... I understand on automatic mode, Sport+ keep the rev till the limiter. But if I am driving in manual mode, is there any difference between Sport and Sport+ (apart from activating PDCC)... I never noticed a difference but may be I am not pressing the throttle hard enough

+1. Sport plus is is really best suited for the track or very aggressive street driving. It lowers interference from traction control and firms up the suspension over Sport. I personally use it exclusively on track and regular and sport mode on the street. Others seem to like it on the street however.

I find sport plus to be extremely violent.
I hit the button by mistake one day when I was zipping along the back roads and almost crapped myself.

+1. I find it violent and uncomfortable on the street as well. But on the track its great. You really have to drive the car hard for.it to feel natural. For me Sport is great for the street, although there are several folks who love Sport Plus on the street.

Did more comparison today:
Sport+ rev matching on downshift is more pronounced (with an amazing sound from PSE) than the downshift rev match of Sport mode.... I really liked it and didn't find it violent or uncomfortable at all in town driving-of course I am talking about manual mode...

You should notice it on up shifts
You get a kick from the transmission as it thunks into next gear.
Probably more noticeable when you leave it in auto though.
Bit of a less to like is when it changes down for you in manual sport plus when you boot it say in third and it decides second would be faster for you. Would prefer it held the ratios a la gt3...
