OK OK......on the $1500. I (was thinking current PASM with all that connect etc).......still, I'd maintain that coilovers are a sigificant change to a car's set-up....this is not a Hyundai.

....but yes, you can, 'just throw them on'.

My vote for CPT. The owner tracks his 996 turbo and knows his stuff.

Its all good. I could be wrong ...but i recently checked at 2 local places for install and corner balance and they came well below 1500.

I was thinking more like 700. Either way ...he does a really job and that's the price you would pay for it.
