Obviously the M2 has a non-adaptive suspension so there?s no arguing with that but the above approach really worked for me and I cannot imagine enjoying this car half as much without the THP and suspension tune. That?s for the street though; if I tracked the car, a tuned, non-adaptive suspension would make a lot more sense.
I am sorry but this all is hard to take in, and I dont know why.

By changin the ammount of time the EDC checks parameters and then call it a "tune" for the suspension, whats that about. It just wears down the sensor even further. The suspension cant get stiffer it just is stiffer more often meaning that pothole will hit harder if the damper is hard as fuck instead of softer. Springs and dampers are what they are, if a software tune could get the job done they would use the same solution on the m2.

Can someone explain exacly what Dinan changes?

I kinnda get the hate against these guys.
My constructive post merely makes you hate Dinan?? Congratulations on the constructive response.
