my concerns of the x73 is, from what im told, that they barely lower the car from stock and ive already signifigantly lowered the car with the roock lowering springs....afraid that the car will sit too high again although i wouldnt mind it sitting a bit higher due to the fact that im replacing about 2 gt2 front spoilers a season

I think the Ruf PSS-9 setup is the best aggressive street compromise.

How is the Ruf PSS9 difference from the standard Bilstein PSS9 or any other tuner's version? Do they just mess with the spring rates?

The one difference I have heard is that the springs are a little less stiff. I do know that it works very well.

Whoever told you that has not a clue, the X73 is almost as low as the GT2, maybe .5 inch higher.
