Check this out!!! (ECS control module)

Not currently, but it should not take long before users start sharing their settings.

True. I was more asking - are the current comfort / sport horizontal lines, or similar to the examples shown? Do they ever reach 100%?

I think I now understand that this reprograms the comfort/sport selections, and would imagine that it gets saved to the box and then redefines your comfort/sport settings, by intercepting the suspension control module responses. Hopefully without phone intervention until we switch again - if it has to be activated every time, that would greatly reduce the functionality. Forget your phone, can't drive at the track, etc..

It appears we only get TWO settings at a time to redefine. Would be REALLY nice if there was a way to do a third option in Custom, even if it redefines ECO or Smart - I never use those anyway - can they detect those modes as well? Or is it only comfort/sport? That way, you could get daily, sporty and super-sport (comfort / sport / custom).

If not, they definitely need "sets" the user can quickly load / reload. I.e. "daily" for a decent setting for comfort / sport, then "quarter_mile" for drag launches, "vacation" for a fully-loaded car that starts stiffer but doesn't get super stiff, etc..

 

[turboAWD]

Four different 'Custom' settings that can be independently configured in the app, beside presets for 'Comfort' and 'Sport'.

Ah - I didn't understand enough of the screen shots to see exactly how that would work.

So we can redefine comfort/sport, AND have 4 other custom settings that can be loaded (whether when stopped or on the fly) via the phone? That sounds like they really thought this through.

No, comfort and sport don't seem to be customizable. They are predefined. You can only customize the 4 custom modes.
I don't know how it works with the car drive modes. Need to find out.

Can you share the email address of your contact @ Mando?
Or if you’d prefer not to do that, can you get the Mando part # for us?

Hmm. If we need to use the phone to switch every time, that really drops the utility of this module, maybe below springs + sways. They really need a way to have at least 2 settings available for on-the-fly switching without a phone (after initial setup with a phone, obviously) for this to be flying-off-the-shelves great.

 

[Marc Collins]

The Comfort and Sport you see in the app are retuned, making them different from the stock Comfort and Sport. There are also spots for your own custom settings.

Do you have the details of the differences? There is no way to look at them in the app, at least for me without hardware installed.

Hopefully this will remember settings after a shut down and restart.
If it doesn’t, it shouldn’t be too hard to have that incorporated into the product.

At worst, I’d leave a cheap phone in the car and have it tasked to setup the Mando Module automatically every time the car starts. There are Android apps that automate such tasks.

But yes, the module needs to do this on its own though.

 

[Not Here Anymore]

I got quoted 400 bucks with labor, but I have no idea how much margin the US/CA/AU resellers will take on top of it.

This sounds decent indeed

It doesn’t show what they have preconfigured sport or custom to.
But there’s several custom slots where you can put it however you’d like it.

Then how do you know they are different from stock?

Then how do you know they are different from stock?

I read the statement on the Sabon Style website.
They mentioned how they retuned the stock modes and also gave a place for your own tuning.

 

[Ty Davis]

Then how do you know they are different from stock?

They said:
“When the sport mode is set, it is harder than the original sport mode, and when it is set to 100% hard, it becomes as hard as the integrated suspension hard type.”

They said:
“When the sport mode is set, it is harder than the original sport mode, and when it is set to 100% hard, it becomes as hard as the integrated suspension hard type.”

Translation is: our Sport mode is reprogrammed and firmer than the OEM Kia Sport mode.

Had I done that I could have also had my question answered

Download the app to your phone and operate it all with one touch. If you do not run the app, the original operation of the car will remain the same. It only works if you run the app.

 

[Ty Davis]

Incredible!!!! Especially if it is affordable.

About $350 USD.

Quite a bargain!

Hi


Even today, I am crazy about the ECS10 product tuning module.


Today's vehicles are the Stinger 2.0T four-wheeled vehicle.


This is a combination of Neo ECS damper and Neo Tech downspring.


What is the Mando ECS10 module?


It is a product that can be adjusted according to driving conditions or driver's tendency by using a damping pressure of up to 100%, which can be used only by 60% of genuine suspension, by installing a tuning module on a vehicle equipped with a genuine ECS variable damper.


When set comfortably, it is more comfortable than the normal mode and ensures a comfortable ride on the large sedan.


When the sport mode is set, it is harder than the original sport mode, and when it is set to 100% hard, it becomes as hard as the integrated suspension hard type. (Not a personal opinion.)


Is it good to be unconditionally hard? Of course not.


Even when driving comfortably, depending on driving conditions and road conditions, the left and right damping pressures actively change the taping pressure within the range (normal or sport mode) to increase driving stability.


You can see that a really groundbreaking item has been developed.


All products have been tested before launch, such as track and highway driving.


It does not matter at all about the durability and warranty of the original suspension and when connecting the diagnostic device.

It is attached without a part to convert to a jack by jack type.


Download the app to your phone and operate it all with one touch. If you do not run the app, the original operation of the car will remain the same. It only works if you run the app.


There are various functions, so you can customize it to suit your taste.


Compensating for the lack of handling or riding comfort while maintaining the ECS function of downspring or genuine suspension


Groundbreaking product that will give you more driving!
