is there a general best setting to use? i find sport + too aggressive for regular driving while sport is pretty good for the most part. just wanted to see what yall were running.

Thanks!

Hey John,

I keep my set-up simple. Usually drive in "Comfort" & shifter set to "D" around town. Car w/ a Stage 1 Dinan is very quick in this mode. Doesn't bang the gears or hold higher RPM's like "Sport and "D/S", but car has lots of pep. As far as actual "get up and go", performance not too much different than when the car was "Stock" and set to sport mode. The Dinan Stage 1 tune really has transformed the car for me.

When I have the urge to get really "jiggy", I put the car in "Sport", and the shifter to "D/S". The Sport + really doesn't add anymore more "Umph", so I never use it.

Before the Dinan tune, basically used the car the same way (or maybe a bit more in sport than comfort).
