I wish Porsche would use better suspension products in the first place. Their stock stuff is nowhere near track-ready.

I ended up getting a whole new H&R coilover kit from TireRack - they gave me a 'good will' discount. I would have gone with the PSS9, but they're still a bit pricey. I do hate to send any $$$ H&R's way though....
Once I get the old kit repaired, I'm selling it on eBay.
