Anybody with any track experience with the pss9 on a C4S wanna chime in?
I summize that they are not nearly as aggressive as the X73 on the track, who want's to climb under and waste time/laps adjusting shocks at a DE anyway?
like palting said, I think you made the right choice, just watch for signs of incorrect spring rates on a na car and be mindful not to lower it too much, as that will royally f up the handling at the track.
Good luck, thanks for the point/counterpoint newport, always good to joust with you

thats what this board is about....besides it makes me do some research!!!! In the event if the worst he is doing is getting X73 or PSS9 on a C4S he is a LUCKY guy right? I mean a gorgeous car and a great suspension setup either way....now if he enjoys it!!!! I am going to e doing my first autocross in a few weeks so I'll let you guys know how the C4/PSS9's handle there...I will probably be running them at the stiffest settings....

X73 is no good for me. First of its not Height Adjustable and second if you say it better on teh Track, i;m not going to Track my car.

I need a Height Adjustable suspension because i;m going to drive her in the winter, so i;m going to raise her all the way i can and then lower it in the Summer.

Thanks guys for alll the help.

Then I dont think you will notice a difference between the TT and C4 kits....If you are not gonna track it.
