I just did it this week. Worlds beytter. It's much harder than c5 or c6 but doable. Check out my thread "z07 springs or LG sway bars" for details.

I was looking for a CTS-V wagon just for the hauling capabilities but after driving a coupe, because wagons are hard to find, I didn't like it as much as I thought I would and the recaro seats just killed me. Have you played with the AP or downloaded the race software to mess with it? I have a AP on my legacy gt and liked playing with it much better that the other laptop based software the car has a tune for also.

If you're still in the market I'd suggest trying the Macan. Just be aware it's not huge inside, but the fun to drive factor makes it worth it. I didn't play with AP, just loaded the canned tune which adds about 35whp and 70wtq. I haven't tinkered with a standalone for a while now, last was a power FC and datalogit software...I don't even know if they make that anymore

I am on post 12 of that thread now. Thanks for the info. Bed time so i will try and read it all tomorrow, fab is going to idle for software upgrades so all systems will be in manual and will be hell to control, so I may not get back to it until Wednesday. I am looking forward to reading it though. I see you are SC'd and running almost stock tire sizes in addition to driving on the street a lot, which is my thing as I commute my car usually, so I may be looking to copy cat you. lol

I never got around to it on my 2014 Z51, even though it was free. Should I follow up with it this late in the game?

My opinion is, don't get a DSC for z51s unless you have good smooth roads or want to take several hours of messing with it. The springs are too soft and there is no tried and true z51 setting yet. Ondulations feel a boat and are very uncomfortable. On track it's pretty good but not too much difference in lap times (I got 0.3 better). I ran mine for 2 years then pulled it off. It is going to be for sale soon.
Also the z51 msr update is only for tour mode. I honestly think the stock z51 2015 car rides perfect in tour. Not too soft not too hard.
