200 lbs springs
Had my springs installed today. Picked it up and right away I noticed a difference. When braking hard, the car barely dips forward. Pretty sweet. Looking forward to this weekend's autox.
On a similar note, would you pay 200 bucks for front Koni struts off an 87 944 turbo with about 80k miles?
Thanks,
Matt
--EDIT--
QUESTION:
What setting should I have the trailing blade set at for the 200lbs Weltmeister springs. I believe they lower about 1-1.5". The Paragon Tech Session seen here shows how change the rear ride height, but I don't know which setting to put it on. Any advice from someone already gone down this road would be great. TIA

No - and that's a truly unbiased opinion - have another look at the new prices.

There is no "setting" per sé... the adjustment is done by rotating the eccentric. In most cases, you want to go as low as possible - but still have it even (side-to-side). The max drop in the back is ~20mm... if the front goes down by 1" (25mm) then you'll be near-perfect.
