Post PSS-9 Installed Finally!

Finally had suspension upgrade done including new rubber and car lowered slightly with corner balance, all work performed at a shop that races Porsches. My 1998 c4s finally handles and it begs to be driven fast. Anyone out there on the fence as far as making switch to Pss-9, i strongly vote in favor of this upgrade.

thx for the post, how low was it " slightly lowered ". I am hoping not to lower mine more than 1 inch.

Also, " with new rubber " = new tires?

Would you care to share the name of the shop/location in NC as I'm in Winston-Salem and am considering a suspension change as well. Did that include alignment and corner balance as well?

Enjoy it Titleist, really changes the car's look and feel, all for the better.

Did you go with the RS Swaybars? I highly recommend them.
