Default MCS

Hi,

I recently picked up gen 1 MCS 2 way suspension with compression and rebound adjustments for my 996 turbo.

Current setup:
150 PSI front and rear canisters
700# springs in front
900# springs in back
compression, 12 in front, 12 in rear
rebound, 15 in front, 16 in rear.

The car is setup primarily as a track car. Rear wheel drive with a guards LSD pushing about 600 wheel HP at 1.5 bar. When at speed it feels a little soft / bouncy in the the turns when there are undulations. Is anyone familiar or have suggestions with MCS suspension settings?

Thanks! Karim

Can't do much about the springs but you could try dialing down your rebound and compression. Bont front/rear: rebound 8, compression 4. I'm running 180 psi front/200 psi rear canister pressures.

Sounds like a great setup. I have gen 2 3way setup with similar springs. Your 2way should be the exact same thing with w LSC set to 5 and no adjustment.

i Would recommend calling Wyatt at MCS, he is very knowledgeable and open to sharing all his info..

ultimately spending a few hours on an empty road or track playing with settings is the way to get things dialed in…

with that said, here are my settings for reference:
