Putting in the new map from dsc was easy enough..
1. Make sure no key in ignition
2. Connect computer and turn on DSC tuner software.
3. Read All from your DSC module and save your existing map to your computer. For just incase you want to turn back.
4. Open the new map from DSC.
5. Write all on to your DSC Module... and your done.
I'm testing the map now and it seems ok.. I'm checking the numbers and it seems close to the map I did before... small variations in the shock calibration. Will give feedback when I can do my high speed runs and canyon road drives....

DSC has always tweaked their files... and you wouldn't know it. I stopped into their shop way back and they noted they have professional disagreements about this or that... sometimes one person wins and the file is tweaked... then etc. etc. I would not get too excited that a new file exists... thinking that there is an improvement. But, the good news is you can try it out, then revert right back to your old one. Just save what is in there now so you can re-load it. Great system albeit a little bit wonky to wrap your head around the way their coders were thinking.
I have become convinced that given the crazy amount of tweaking you can do, that this is all about taste... and influence from the type of driving you do and the quality of your roads. No setup is best.
I am a big fan of their stuff for sure.

I agree Bruce. When I got the box about 5 yrs ago dsc gave me their preferred map... which I tried... as I used it realized its shortcoming for my roads and use... had to modify... I have so many maps on my computer and their results... but in the short spin at least, my brain and ***** say it's ok with the new map...
