there is a **** on top of the struts...you turn the ****...thats it....I have it on 6 frony and 7 rear..pretty soft...I am tempted to move it to 5 front 6 rear....I have NEVER changed it. Although it takes about 10 minutes total....I told my installer what I wanted and he was very knowledgeable about them....so he knew what to set it to.

Newport, good for you... I am in no way criticizing the adjustables. I just meant I did not want to bother with experimenting, In fact I agree the 030 is not low enough and your setup is probably better. I just did not want to bother, that's all...

I do laugh at the 8 hour labor, as I can do it in 2.5 hours with air tools and not on a lift( floor jacks only). As far as the debate of ROW or PSS9 there is no right or wrong, it depends on what the user wants out of their car.

Damn, I was computing the cost of flying you here, but nah... Not quite worth it ;-)

The tech actually used to be a head Porsche tech before opening his own shop and probaly more experienced than 99% of any Porsche dealer techs.
Newport, would you mind telling us who your tuning shop is? I work in your part of the world, so I could be very interested in getting a recommeded installer.
