No worries and goodstuff!
The Ohlins have a beautiful compliance to them...very competent on rough surface, and you'll find speed where you couldn't before...
Have a set of KW V3's I'm installing on my beater Boxster...excited to compare, as they seem to be close market competitors...

I ordered some thrust sheets from Swift and all new bolts for the install. Just need to be patient while waiting on parts...

I have the kw clubsport on my 964
I think the ohlins dfv feel better. Of course apples and oranges but the damping just feels more compliant and controlled. Not that kw is bad...its actually very good. Maybe I'm just partial to the feel of the ohlins.
Yeah mine are dialed up pretty stiff. For street use I can turn them way down I just don't do a ton of street miles in the car.

Hi Rob, I'll reach out directly.

Out of curiosity what are the specs of the Ohlins package, and what's the approximate price?

Cheers

Matt

Hey Matt,
for 6 GT2/3 they run a 70nm/140nm front/rear spring rate...~400lb/800lb
Pricing, they are a fantastic deal at MRSP ~$2500USD...I got mine from Dave @ ButziGear
starting a new venture, would love to carry/support them...
