My PSS9 thoughts after a few days....

Tom and Arling are the best. Got me out on a hectic friday, worked until 10pm so I could have my car for the weekend....So here are my thoughts on my 1999 Carrera 4 Cabriolet with the PSS9 system. Not harsh, it feels damn good. Very solid. I have my settings a little soft, 5/6. Will most definately drop to a 4/5 and see how that is, but 5/6 is by no means boat like. Much reduced body roll in accelerating and braking as well as cornering. My understeer is GONE. In all articles I have read, they say this is the all wheel drive, but now I am experiencing a slight bit of oversteer. I love it. Soft enough that my finace didn't even notice a difference in ride. In my Boxster with just springs, she noticed it immediately. The look is 1000 times better than stock. I am not very low at all, maybe 1/2" to 3/4". But the look is great. Will probably have Tom drop it all around by 1/4" if it doesn't settle more. On small bumps, it's better than stock. You don't really feel them at all. On bigger ones, you feel them a little more than stock. But overall it's a smoother ride. This is the way the car should come. It's an amazing system to get a better ride, and lower ride height....Awesome. I'll post some pics when I get around to it.

I am considering this for my next mod. I also have a '99 C4 (coupe). If you don't mind could you PM me your install charge as I am shopping around town for a good price. How about some pics? Thanks, Mike.
