Integrated Dynamics System

The Integrated Dynamics System (IDS) automatically and seamlessly fine-tunes the vehicle on a real-time basis to help maximize performance and driver enjoyment, regardless of conditions.

Systems adjusted via the console-mounted Dynamic Mode switch include:

• Throttle response
• Automatic transmission function
• Active Sound Control (ASC)
• Electric Power Steering (EPS)
• Adaptive Damper System (ADS) (A-Spec^® with Technology Package)
• Idle Stop functionality
• Instrument lighting theme

Using the console-mounted Dynamic Mode switch, drivers may preset Comfort or Normal as their default mode (enabled upon engine start), while the Sport and Individual (A-Spec with Technology Package) modes can be selected after engine startup. The selected mode is then displayed on the instrument panel.

• Comfort mode optimizes throttle response, shifting and electric power steering for the most luxurious driving experience. This setting makes the Integra relaxed and easy to drive.
• Normal mode enhances throttle, EPS and Adaptive Damper System (A-Spec with Technology Package) to sharpen vehicle dynamics. This setting provides direct and sport-tuned response and feel.
• Sport mode adjusts transmission shift mapping, throttle response, EPS, Adaptive Damper System (A-Spec with Technology Package) and Active Sound Control (ASC) to maximize the driver experience. Idle Stop is disabled.
• Individual mode allows drivers to independently select their desired setting (Comfort, Normal or Sport) for all controlled dynamic systems including powertrain (throttle response, transmission shift mapping and Active Sound Control [ASC]), steering, Idle Stop, Adaptive Damper System (A-Spec with Technology Package) and instrument lighting schemes.
