Vette Modification (2)
If you are like me, you are driven nuts by the paddle shifter paddles on the C6 Corvette. I have 4 cars with paddle shifters, one thing consistent on them all, but the C6, is that you pull back on the left to downshift, and you pull back on the right to upshift. The C6 is pull back on left or right to dowshift, and push on small buttons above the steering wheel to upshift. Every time I get in the car, being used to driving the others, I shift badly with it. This article is about a simple modification you can make by swapping two wires in the steering wheel to fix that. When done, pulling on the left downshift, pulling on the right upshifts. Pushing the button on the left upshifts, pushing the button on the right downshift. I will no longer use the buttions, and having the paddles consistent with other cars is great!!!!

Replacing the factory shock controller, the DSC Sport V2 is a state-of-the-art user definable suspension controller that fully interfaces with the factory dash display and controls. The V2 Controller features velocity calculations as well as brake pressure, g-force, acceleration, speed (mph), and full individual shock calibration tables. Digitally tune the chassis just as you would the engine! Tune more grip into the tire, while tuning a more compliant ride for the street. The DSC Sport V2 Controller is equally at home as a daily driver or full-time track setup.

One time price to be able to DIY tune your suspension the way you want when you want anytime you want.
DSC stands for Dynamic Suspension Control. Using an algorithm developed out of years of professional race data, DSC adjusts the damping level of each individual shock in virtually real time. The result is an active suspension setup that provides more grip to the tire, greater stability and ride control, and increased comfort for all driving styles and road conditions.
DSC Sport allows drivers to custom tune their suspension by creating various tuning maps within the DSC Sport Tuning Software. Users may wish to create custom maps for specific tracks or roads, unique rain set ups, or to improve compatibility with other aftermarket products and vehicle setups.
