How do I get the AI to use a custom setup?

What is a step by step procedure for getting the AI to use a custom setup? I have read a few threads about this and tried selecting the AI driver and then going to the garage and choosing the setup I made and then clicking "AI Setup" and it doesn't seem to make any difference.

I am racing the Honda touring car at Bathurst and have my gears set properly for the long straight and I am passing the AI cars about 10mph faster because they are bouncing off the rev limiter in 6th.
 
Click " CAR "
Click " TUNING "
Click " FORCE SETUP " ...top right corner

But this doesn't allow me to choose a setup file with modified gear ratios, suspension settings, etc. The only 2 options here are "Tire Selection" and "Visor Mod".

I would have though the "AI Setup" button in the Garage would allow for a custom setup to be used on an AI car but I have tried to apply a setup numerous ways and nothing works. Is there any documentation from ISI on this button or feature?
 
Doh yeah what Paul said as well.

Try offline select mod , run it , select setup, save and exit.
Then create a server with same mod ( it will be at top of list ), limit it to 1 driver and password it.
Click on fixed setup and set the ai numbers you want to use
Start server and join ( you don't need ports as no one joins and you not downloading/uploading )
The ai will use the setup at least they did last time I tested it, same for real drivers.

I don't worry about Historics ai setup till final packages.

Take one example, F3 at Belgium the ai will hold 9.500+ RPM in 4th gear forever and lose time no matter what gearing you give them.

ie : "some" Ai Car and Track combos will produce varying results from a particular setup may be great for you.
 
Does it set by individual AI (e.g. 3 AI Formula Renaults each can have different settings) or does it set all AI of that type to the same setup?
