Bilstein B16 Damptronic


Bilstein B16 PSS10

 

email sent requesting Damptronics for a PDCC car!

 

Can you provide some additional info for a 2013 Carrera S? Specifically:

What's the spring rates vs. stock? My car is a cab and has PASM but not PDCC.
Does this also have the stock and "sport" setup and works with the button in the car?
Do you have any real world feedback from someone who has installed this? A little stiffer, a lot stiffer, better turn in, what?

Thanks in advance!

 

you want the B16 Damptronic which is PASM compatible.

 

My base 911 without PASM won't work with any of these, will it?

 

not true, there should be a PSS9 or PSS10 (both of which are non-PASM) that are compatible with the base 991!

 

We have installed the B16 Damptronic setup on several 991s here at the shop and the response from owners has been absolutely positive. I would say the setup is "noticeably" stiffer when it comes to reduced body roll, increased stability, and sharper turn-in but only "marginally" stiffer in terms of its effect on ride comfort. This is because the shorter, firmer springs are matched to shorter & firmer dampers that are designed specifically to work at the new lower ride height. You will notice that the car feels lower and more agile but I think everyone so far has been surprised by just how compliant and comfortable the 991 can be at these ride heights (as seen in the picture above, for example).

The Damptronic system integrates directly into the PASM system so you can still use the button on your center console to switch between the Comfort & Sport modes and will have no error codes.

You are actually lucky because you'll notice the biggest improvement by upgrading from the base suspension to any of the Bilstein coilover options and you get to save a little compared to the more advanced Damptronic options that are designed for PASM cars!

I'll PM you pricing on some different options and explain the differences between them.

 

I also have a base car without PASM and interested in available options!

 

PM sent!

 

PM price for damptronics. Thx!

 

PM incoming!

 

Damptronics available for a 997 c4s?

 

Yes they are! I will PM you details.

 

Seems like 35% off MSRP is the going rate all of the time at most places or the MSRP is inflated. Tirerack sells at that price all year http://www.tirerack.com/suspension/S...6&autoModClar=

 

Bilstein doesn't enforce a minimum advertised pricing policy like some other brands do so it is common to see Bilstein products advertised at some amount below the standard MSRP.

Our prices are calculated off of Bilstein's current official MSRP but if anyone finds a better deal elsewhere, I'd be happy to try and beat it! Just PM or email me a part number and let me know where it's going (shipping zip or installation here at TAG) and I'll see what I can do!
