One question, I don't really use the paddles but on occasion, I sometimes choose to shift down with the paddle. What is the quickest route back to auto? I think it's moving the selector lever left/right to go into manual and back to auto. Is that right or is there another way?
There is a very nice shortcut for this, from the manual:

Car feels a bit bumpier over bumps but nothing unbearable. Mostly feels like stock though. Def not better than stock. I can tolerate it ( im in dynamic mode)
Drop is conservative for now since it needs to settle but i think after a few weeks its gonna b perfect and functional. Nothing low but no more wheel gap either

Cant get any pics to show the drop as we know nyc is a fckn crater. No even grounds. But i promise u most of the gap is gone. And once its settled, boingggggg













I will have better pics soon!

Thank u!

so a quick update after having some seat time. I posted in the other thread but ill just reiterated here. The drop makes the tts feels stock when going over bumps. No bounciness at all. Im very happy with the drop. I'm gonna go out to take some pics later so will post it here tonight!

Looks great !

Do you know what the drop was from top of tire to fender edge ?

I also have the 20" wheels, looking to go up one tire size from stock 255/30/20 to 265/30/20 in order to use the new Michelin Pilot Sport PS4's. This move alone would reduce some wheel gap due to tire being a larger diameter.

My thinking is it would reduce wheel gap along with raising car height from ground.

Keep your mods coming !, fun to follow along.
