APR Suspension Control Unit (SCU)

Has anyone installed or had experience with an aftermarket SCU? I didn't know this was an option until today.

It seems they provide a more realtime, analog-level dynamic dampening:

The APR Suspension Control Unit (SCU) Upgrade directly replaces your factory suspension controller with a new unit that enables advanced control over your vehicle's factory electronic shocks. The factory controller only operates in a "soft" or "stiff" state with no behavior in-between, despite the incredible capability of the factory electronic shocks. Our controller has advanced programming that takes various inputs to provide fine-tuned control over the shocks in real time. The controller still retains factory comfort and sport functionally, and it doesn't compromise ride quality for performance. However, both modes rapidly increase performance depending on various inputs such as acceleration, brake pressure, G-forces, steering angle, speed, and damper shaft velocity.

I was kind of hoping this would update on the screen with more control options, but it supposedly makes the current options perform better. It's have to experience the difference to see if it's worth it for me.

Yeah, if I read the web page right, it claims to provide better real-time dampening that results in traction improvements, allowing for better acceleration.

I could do with better traction =D

One would think 🤔
Is there a similar suspension option that would be better ?
