Take a closer look at your g-tables, there is a minor blip at .6F/.2L for all three tables. Basically the default tables are setup to be symmetrical left to right. But for some reason the .6F/.2L settings are 80%LF / 70%RF. This is the only entry in all three tables where Left and Right are asymmetrical. Change it to 80%LF / 80%RF to remove the g-table anomaly.

I noticed this same blip in my tables before making any modifications. Probably a default g-table setup mistake from the factory DSC.

You're absolutely right! Looks like Mike was playing around with a few different values for that input load and mistakenly left them asymmetrical. Good eye!

We're going to make our base maps available on the new site, so we'll be sure to make the fix before uploading those files.

I have the 997.1 version with three modes loosely named normal, sport, and track in the software. My PASM light on the console is either solid, blinking twice, or blinking three times depending upon the mode. Exchanging emails with Tom at TPC Racing he mentioned something about newer models of the DSC box only have two modes. Is this correct? If so how do the g-tables and shock calibration settings match up with the version I have? Any improvements to the settings? What about the console lights, do they operate differently? If so do you offer an exchange/upgrade program?

I heard the same and would also like to know about this since I would like two street modes and a dedicated track mode like the original unit provided.

Be great to get a view of the range (ie 1200ma to 200ma) of each of the main shocks in use (Bilstein B8/16, OEM etc).

No idea why anyone would want fewer modes.

Be nice if more would post their map files. I'm the only one to do so as of now. It's not like they're secret??

I'm most pleased about the comfort setting. It's supple like my couch
I made the above adjustment yesterday and it is considerably more comfortable but a bit too wobbly.
Any others out there who've set up a comfort setting? I might try dialing out the full soft to something like 25-30% but I'll have to go back and look at the stock map on mode 1.

eta: I'm on B16s with stock tire sizes for an S, BStone S0-4s.

The attached zip file has Quadcammer's soft mode 1 and semicycler's corrected g-tables. Modes 2 and 3 are stock with corrected g-tables.

WEll it seems there are many different softwares flying around! I just tried the latest one out from the NZ agent and I went back to my stock one above. The latest was very bumpy and poorly controlled at low speed - the girlfriend's, ah, little not so little friends were getting badly jounced about and she straightaway said put the old software back in!!!

Interesting! Did the firmware in your unit permit the 2 mode functionality? "Sport" mode worked quite well at HD in Chris Mendes car. Have not got any feedback from him on how the car is on the street however.

I was under the impression floatingkiwi was referring to the maps themselves not the actual software (softwares).
