Stability Control off with AYC Brake on vs. All Off

Can anyone compare the two in terms of driving feel on a track and overall lap time?

If we talking about the X:
as more you turn off the s-awc you should be gradually faster. BUT as a beginner I think the second stage would be the fastest for a while,which is deletes the throttle cut only. When you are comfortable and confident to handle the car and you able to feel and rotate the far car well you will be faster with a complete off position.

Everything is on makes you a lot wider in the turns if you over shoot, but very smooth and stable. Easy to control.
Throttle control off (one click) makes the car turn sharper and a bit rotate more. Via more power to the wheels.
3 sec hold brake control off also in the s-awc system. Makes the car really come a live. Turns really sharp and the car becomes very agile.
but a same time can be sketchy for a rookie driver. Car reacts instantly any movement rotates very well if you want it slides etc. Basically you are your own. Compere to the basic set up.

I think that is a very simple way to explain it.

I usually drive in ASC off and AYC Brake off and am just faster than the stock 2013 Evo X MR timed record with Hankook R-S3's, ST43/XT910 and a test pipe. (I'm driving an 2011 MR) That being said, if I'm driving the lights out, those mods should give me around 2 seconds around the track. Stock MR laps the track in 1:22:99 with a very good driver in it. I currently lap the track in 1:22.92.

(Source of laptime: http://www.autoguide.com/car-compari...tion-2391.html)

I'm just wondering if I would be faster if I leave the AYC Brake on. Track characteristics are 1.86 mile track, one long straight, one short straight and mostly 3rd gear sweepers with very short straights in between.

I came from the RX-7, then a low powered Honda FF car in between, with occasional FR cars like the 135i and RX-8 around a track so this is already much better for rear traction in everything off mode than what I'm used to.



My line is as follows compared to this picture:
1-2: Same
3: Same to Slightly tighter exit
4: Same to Slightly tighter exit
5: Earlier power
6: Earlier power
7A-7B: Slightly later braking
8: Wider Exit
9: Tight Entrance (Off-Camber Corner)
10: Tighter Exit
11: Wider Entrance, Early power

1.22.92 was done with a mistake on 6, which cost me a bit of time, so I know I can drop a couple of tenths on that turn alone.
