All you guys using Eibachs with DSC—are you just using the stock DSC profile? Or is there a separate one for those springs? (Or have you customized your own?)

Running the stock DSC program. Forgot you could download 'tunes' or customize the settings yourself with the new DSC. Would be cool if there was a custom file for use specifically with Eibachs.

Just to throw in my two cents: We have an extra stage in our production called ''pre setting'' that eliminates any future sagging or fatigue.

Taner, welcome. I was told at SEMA by one of your large customer that there is nothing changed in the spring rates, just packing? Is Eibach private labeling springs for this platform?

I have GMG sitting in garage, and just ordered B8s. Will be installing in spring with new 964 RS motor mounts.

Already have DSC and GT2 RS rear bar.

Nice suspension setup. That all should work together quite nicely.

Tanner, your co sells a tuv version in Europe, is this just a stiffer rear spring?

I'm running GMG, DSC, GT2 rear bar and GT3 LCAs up front. Love the setup.

Am running a custom map on the DSC, modified both modes to suit city and B road driving and then a track map. Happy to share it if anyone's interested.

Not perfect but yes. It s does reduce acceleration squat and nose dive under harder braking.
