Non-ZCP EDC Coding

Is there any benefit to coding the dampers on a non-ZCP car? Looking for experience from those who have given it a shot. Knowing that the hardware is different in the base model, I'm curious how it responds. Most EDC coding feedback is from ZCP owners.

I did the GTS EDC coding on my non-ZCP car(lowered on MS springs). Feels much more planted, stiffer, and rebound is better...but the ride is also a little more brittle on broken road.

GTS doesn't have EDC, so that doesn't really make sense. If anything, you either have stock, stock ZCP, or it's "off" which basically sets the shocks to full stiff permanently and there is no more adaptive function. (I don't recommend this)

Sorry, I meant CS EDC...not GTS. I have GTS diff & steering coding.
