Looks great! Just posting a picture of my car with Eibach springs in the same color and similar perspective, for comparison in case someone were curious about the visual difference between the two springs:
Eibach springs
And mine for a third comparison point, another Agate, but .1 on stock springs...
Did you guys have an alignment done after lowering? To what specs?
It's weird cuz mine with Eibachs seems a little lower than the others Eibachs. It must be the more aggressive offset on the HRE's that gives it that look.
....these 991 Turbos definitely look better lowered. though the stock "4x4 look" isn't nearly as bad as it was on stock 996 Turbos.
Before:
Yeah, that's pretty massive. My criteria is, I don't want to see the top of the tire tread standing next to the car. Probably why my Macan Turbo drove me nuts..
Did you guys have an alignment done after lowering? To what specs?
I took mine to Prestige, they'll do a "close to stock" alignment. It ends up being about -2 camber in the rear which really is most likely better than "stock". But that's as close a they can get when lowered.
I love the look of the lowered 991 turbos, but unfortunately it's not possible for me. I don't think I could get into my driveway with a lowered car, and even driving around in mountain towns can be challenging with the factory height.
What coating did you use? Those look very slick.
Should aid in quicker spool up.
It's a high temperature silicon/ceramic coating specifically designed for turbo applications that was recommended by my powder coater... 2,000F. On Kline headers. Bit of a shame to stick them where they will never be seen!
