MDS will not kick in @ 70MPH unless you are going down a hill or have a STRONG tail wind.

I really can not understand how you do not hear the MDS kicking in. If you pay close attention, even with a stock exhaust, you can hear the note change.

Turn your CC on. Jump on it until you hit 40, then let off and hit the CC right away, as RPMs go down within 5-10 seconds you should be able to hear the MDS kick in.

I find my MDS begins to kick off and on around 55ish (3.92s on 20s), so under 55 if you are steady with the gas it should be on at all times. Just pushing on the gas slightly will turn it off.
