Magnetic Ride vs DSSV

[RDATLTE]

As an owner of a ZL1 1LE, I’ll be duly impressed If the 4the generation of the Magnetic Ride can equal the DSSV when in track mode.

Why Cadillac Blackwing Sedans Use Magnetic Ride And Not DSSV

MRC won out over the DSSV damping system used in the Camaro ZL1 1LE.

It's hard to beat a well tuned MR setup. The only downside to MR shocks is that as they heat up on track the viscosity will change and so will the damping. I can't say I ever noticed it in a 20-30 min HPDE session and I believe the later MR cals actually have some sort of compensation built in for fluid temps.

I plan to put a DSC Sport controlled in my BW as soon as they have one and have run it in all 5 of my C7s. If you want something that uses traditional shim stacks and valves look in to the Tractive shocks. They have a computer controlled valve that the DSC Sport controller can dynamically adjust in response to driver inputs and car movement like the MR system. I run that combo in my C7 race car and I know a couple of folks have replaced the DSSV setups in their 1LEs with it.
