So I never really wanted to do any suspension mods beyond plug and play options like DSC. Now when I see TTS that are lowered it just looks right. What can of worms am opening if I were to choose to go down that road.

I have the TechArt lowering springs with DSC. No cans opened .

How do those springs affect the ride

CodyzWorld

Get the Bilstein B16 kit. period.

Tech art springs and DSC here as well. No issues besides a bit too low for my liking. Got eibach springs to swap on one day when i'm not being lazy.

Eibach with DSC - zero worms. I was sensitive to the car being too low and as much as I love the look of almost no fender gap, my previous experience with other platforms are lessons I don't want to repeat. Sometimes I think I want coilovers (another lesson from other platforms), but then I remember the ride is perfectly fine the way it is and I don't have a problem to solve.

Whats it take to install those springs

I think the 991 TTS can look really good lowered if it’s done tastefully and not “slammed”. I’d also worry about ride quality. Unfortunately (or fortunately) for me, I live in the mountains and lowering my car would render it undriveable. I sometimes struggle with stock ride height.

Looking forward to seeing what you decide to do.

FWIW, TPC Racing/DSC Sport do not recommend lowering the car. The DSC Controller was designed to work at OEM height. Looks are not factored in to that recommendation. They do say one can benefit from upgraded springs, but not for lowering purposes.

Well there you have it, Foosh party pooper. Thanks for saving me a bunch of $$

But, the B-16 does everything stock does, without DSC and Better.

Ironically I'm without the car due to a factory strut on backorder and now people are saying to replace them outright lol 😆

This; the dsc with the gt3 touring program is divine.

There's no doubt one can set up the car with different/lower springs to work well with the DSC suspension controller. All I said above is that DSC doesn't recommend it because their model-specific programs were developed to work best at the OEM height specs and suspension parts. If you're good at experimenting with different DSC settings, and you have a good feeling for what is working best, I suspect you can find a set-up that you're pleased with.

However, the other caveat is that individual preferences vary widely. What some may perceive to be an improvement, will likely feel like a step backwards to someone else. I'm sure the feedback Mike and Tom have received over the years has led to their recommendation to stay with OEM ride height for the average customer.

If' you're a serious track person, you've probably learned that what's good for one particular track may not work nearly as well on another. A good example of this is Sebring, with sections of WWII-era crumbling concrete, vs. the freshly-paved Laguna Seca.

This lowering springs aren't matched to the OEM dampers and it just doesn't drive right. I have Bilstien Damptronic they transform the car.
