Upgrading suspension

Burning Brakes
I bought my car with ROW m030 springs already installed on the stock shocks. When I needed to upgrade I went with Bilstein HD's figuring I was already halfway there...why drop them in favor of pss9 (at the time).
In hindsight, and I like a stiffly sprung car, I have some regret that I didn't go all the way the first time around.

I have the PSS9's. If I ever had to do it all over again, my choice would be the newest PSS10 system.
Tony, when you do this, make sure you buy/do the Walrod bushing update at the same time.

I have the PSS10s on my car, and the car is below ROW. Stiffness is set in the middle. We don't have the greatest roads in my area and I can say without hesitation that I've never been uncomfortable driving on the street.
Sure it's stiffer than stock, but the ride quality doesn't suffer in the least.
Worth the money IMHO.

I appreciate the feedback.
Classic trade-off scenario, PSS10 for ultimate street/track at higher cost. HD/Spring combo for lower cost but limited functionality......
Anyone have any PSS10 for sale?

I have had both, but on different 993s. I had the HDs with MO30 on a Targa and a Cab. Nice ride on both.
PSS10 in the RUF. Also very good. But the key difference is that I can adjust it to my liking for various situations. I don't adjust it much, but will sometimes stiffen it for hard driving.
PSS10 allow for adjustment and refinement, HDs don't. Simple as that. And with a turbo car, you may want the ability to make it stiffer for hard driving.
With that in mind, and the high cost that Tony already has in the car, I would go PSS10.
