One of the big changes the DSC module does is set the "0g" damper strength baseline (their so called "g comfort" parameters). Their off-the-shelf tunes put the dampers at nearly full-soft
until a lateral or longitudinal g-force is observed, then the software goes to that table and adds damping resistance. There are several modifiers, but the misleading one is the Camaro software doesn't use the ride height sensors for absolute position, only to calculate damper velocity.
So, the DSC module is reactive, not proactive. If one or more tires is off the pavement, it doesn't know that. The OEM module
does account for wheel position, which is why it lands jumps gracefully and the DSC cannot.
If you like the DSC though, then that's really all that matters.
