996 Suspension Question

I installed PSS-10s that I bought from Gerty? I have them set kind of soft 4's all around I think. I only street w/ occasional HPDE events. They seem to be so much better on the highway expansion joints, one of the main reasons I went this way. When I first put the car back on the ground it was too low for my taste, so I had the alignment shop set the ride height for me just this week and had them bring the car back up ten mm (somewhere between ROW and ROW Sport) and into alignment. I doubt if I will ever use them to their full potential but so far I'm extremely pleased with them. BTW I also replaced all the rubber bits in the front when I installed the Bilsteins.

All great feedback on the PSS10s, looks like that's the way I should go.
gobs - I'll check out Conway Autoworks in Hanover since I'm on the south shore. Have you heard of/know of South Shore Autoworks? Good/bad shop?

I live here in Hanover. South Shore is good but Kenny at Conway is the way to go. Actually stop there and speak to him when you see his work space you will be hooked. He can do it all in there.

+1 on the PSS10's installed and set to -15mm
looks like this
I'd +1 the FVD's, though I have no experience with them, but they review well
Consider the advantages of an adjustable suspension, if you were to put the Porsche M030 kit on
(which I found to be harsh) if you don't like it, you're kinda stuck with it
You can raise or lower the car to your liking
at the very least with adjustable, you're most likely to find a setting that's optimal
upgraded sways will eliminate body roll
I'm 100% satisfied with my set up, wasn't cheap, but definitely worth it

For the guys that installed Ohlins, how hard to set up?
Did you adjust rebound etc first track day to see what felt best?
Is the 400/800 spring rating ok, or do you feel it is too soft in the front?
