Q.. is infamous around these parts
REALLY stupid PSS10 question....

OK, I must be tired.... but this really isnt making sense to me

For years some of us have used Pss9's
1 = HARD
9 = soft
Great.

Now, I look at the PSS10's
....and to me it appears that:
10 = HARD
1 = soft
Am I losing it here ?

No, I don't think you are losing it. I have heard that the 10's are opposite of the 9's, so 10=hard and 1=soft.

PSS10s

Here's a way to remember - think of it in terms of women - 10=hard, 1=soft

The PSS10's are opposite (10 is hardest). I'm set 8 front and rears.

Visualize yourself turning the **** according to the arrows towards the "hard" setting and then get back to us on that one.

I just installed pss10 last week...and 10 is hardest for sure. Bilstein guy said that it is what people have been asking for?? More intuitive that higher number is stiffer?

If you set it on 5 then it doesn't matter. J/K...


For those with the PSS10 how easy is it to install. I've installed coilovers on previous cars, I was just wondering if it's any different on the 996tt. I just purchased an 01 996tt and I'm looking to add coilovers. Also how's the ride? I was looking at these or the H&R setup. Would love to get the Motons, but for just street use I can't say I would really need the Motons.
