Base 991.2 Spring Upgrade
Would be interesting to see what Tom and/or Mike at TPC might have to say there, as you're already using DSC.
Hi Folks, has anyone upgraded the stock springs only? Perhaps to S springs or something else?
Car is experiencing far too much body roll at higher speeds and need to stiffen things up without going coil over.
Already have DSC installed with GT3RS file loaded.
Not interested in dropping car too much from stock due to driveway and speed ramps.
Any advice appreciated.

If everything checks out fine and you want more roll stiffness then add stiffer sway bars. Stiffer spring help, but stiffer sway bars are more effective in specifically targeting body roll.

Road, or track? Track is easier and more one-dimensional. Road is trickier. Stiffer springs may or may not help with that issue, as what you very well may be looking for is compliance. It's all a compromise, if you watch David Donner's run up Pikes Peak (under a thread called "New 991 film" in this forum), you'll see the compromise he chose to avoid losing big time on the smoother lower sectors. I've been road testing cars on mountain roads like that for years, and what matters most is not perfection in one condition or the other—because you won't get perfection in both—but predictability, which feeds driver confidence.
