Who has the best price and or best help on the DSC? Looking to order one in the next month.

 

It's the same price regardless whether you order it from DSC or a distributor. It's a specialty low production piece of technology. Best support is directly DCS or the distributor can help obtaining answers for you. Your biggest concern will be who have it in stock at the time you are ready to buy it.
Good luck!

 

I will say this, while you have a few options Ridetech has it in stock and it has been installed on Bret's (the owner) car long before it became available for purchase by the general public. They offer great support and are at events all around the country to answer questions and provide ride alongs. Contact Smitty@ridetech on here if you want one, he will get you sorted out. I believe they ordered 100 units which, with such a niche product, says something about how strongly they feel about the controller.

 

I'll also put in a plug for Katech. While I got my controller directly from DSC as an early prototype I have a long history of working with Katech. They've always provided me excellent support in all areas of what they sell.

 

I honestly believe it's the best C7 Z06 performance upgrade to get the most out of the suspension.

 

Thank you Great info

 

For What its worth, DSC and Ridetech are both at PRI INDY this week.
Definitely a huge improvement for the Z06.

 

+1 on Ridetech. Great Communication, fast shipping,
Thanks Ridetech

 

How is it set up out of the box? Is it simply plug-n-play with immediate results, or does it merely provide the platform to custom tune the suspension?

 

immediate results. There are shock tuning maps provided that make a huge difference. It is also a platform to custom tune the suspension so best of both worlds.

 

I had been in touch with Ridetech, and they called about Nov 28th saying they expected to start sending them out Dec 1st - so I went ahead and ordered.

I was to be running Daytona Dec 9-11, and on about the 5th I PM'd Smitty (forum ID: Smitty@ridetech ) because it hadn't arrived. I asked if mine had been shipped, or if I might have it in time for the event. He checked and said he would insure that I got it Thurs Dec 8th, and I did - it came that morning!!! Great customer service!!

I installed it in about 30 minutes, had some lunch, and went out to the track to register and get teched - and to take the great track tour that this event always has on Thursday before the event starts on Friday.

Fri, Sat, and Sun we had great weather and I got to run the car hard. I'll post up some thoughts on it soon, but I really liked what it does for the car - during hard braking it doesn't let the nose dive at all, and it seems to reduce body roll in hard cornering. I'm going to review pictures and try to compare how the body looks at the event I drove in Oct without the Magnetuner, and how it looks at the Dec event. My wife is a great photographer, but I think I'll need to wait for the pro photos I ordered and hope I have some photos of the car at the two events at the same corners so I can compare. I don't know if that will really be a good comparo, but for instance here's the car in Oct with stock shock controller:








Overall - great customer service from Ridetech, and my SOTP feeling is that it really helps the magnetorheological shocks do what they're designed to do - and more than the Chebie controller does because I believe it uses input from more sensors than the factory unit.

Like schaibaa said - immediate with the tune that comes in it; or you can custom tune it for different tracks, tires, driving styles, etc.

Here's a link to a video tutorial:
