anyone run MOTONS ?
Just wondering if anyone runs the MOTON 993 package and how they find it and how it compares with anything else ? What spring rates do you use with it ?
I am in the unfortunate position of having to fiddle with my PSS10 yet again (not out of choice) and I am thinking of just moving them on and going to Moton or MCS.

I have the Moton clubsports and love them. Running 700/900 springs. No leaks so far after six years. Although the car rides very well on the street compared to Bilsteins, these are not well-suited for constant road use, especially if you have suspension bearings.
Tough decision of Moton versus MCS. Steve Weiner, who used to sell Moton, as well as other vendors, espouse MCS. Not sure how well proven MCS is, but I do believe it is still being run (owned?) by Lex Carson who used to run Moton USA. When my Motons need servicing, I'm not sure what I'll do, but I imagine someone out there can work on them, for Moton sold many, many dampers to pro teams and club guys.

Running Clubsports same as Mark. Spring a bit more aggressive (1300 lbs), but my setup is very specific to a driving style/ technique I was taught. The rates Mark has are a bit more flexible for track conditions. Shocks work great. I have to do little to them over the years and they have kept pressure every time we check them.

Mark,
They actually work really well at Summit especially with the improved track conditions over the last 3 years. Biggest challenge is still T1-T2, but if you stuff it in there the hoping is pretty minor.

I'm running the Moton Motorsport triple adjustable dampers on my car and absolutely love them. I've had a couple issues with the left rear leaking and have had it serviced once by Lex at Moton and the second time with Moton/AST in Texas.
Like many here I'm running 700/900lb springs.

Thanks guys ...
So you guessed the next question. Is anyone using MCS ?
It looks like the install would be faily comprehensive with some new holes made in the arches to feed the reservoir lines through, some custom mounts made for brake lines, ABS wires etc..
