Is this the same as the PSS10 Damptronics that I just got for mine?

GMP Performance Dec 5, 2007 02:07 PM

I just spoke to Bilstein directly to clear this issue up. Bilstein only offers one coilover system with pasm. They offer 3 coilover systems all together for the 997 Turbo, PSS9 w/out pasm, pss9 w.pasm, and the pss10 w/out pasm.

THese are the PSS9 with pasm they are height adjustable and obviously are electronically controlled dampers. If you have a set of coilovers from bilstein that are PASM compatible, then yes they are the same system as what we have here. The difference between the PSS9 without pasm and the PSS10 without pasm is how they are dampening adjustable. The adjustment is done manually on both systems, however the 9's are done at the top and the 10's are done at the bottom.

Thanks for clearing that up. All this time I thought I had the PSS10.

I don't think this is correct.

The 9 in PSS9 refers to the 9 settings available on the manual shock valving adjustment.

The 10 in PSS10 refers to the 10 settings available on the manual shock valving adjustment.

The coilovers used on PASM cars do not have manual shock valving adjustment. They have two valving settings adjusted by the switch on the dash. These coilovers are called "Damptronic" and are what everyone is using on the 997TT.

Just getting everyone on the same page with terminology.

Josh/AWE Dec 5, 2007 03:23 PM

^^^^^^^
This is correct.

GMP Performance Dec 5, 2007 03:24 PM

Thats basically what I just said.

GMP Performance Dec 5, 2007 03:25 PM

There are three systems two of which can be adjusted manually which are called the 9s and 10's without pasm. then there are the 9's with pasm which are adjusted automatically and retail the sport function inside the car.

GMP Performance Dec 5, 2007 03:26 PM

This information comes directly from Bilstein.

GMP Performance Dec 5, 2007 03:28 PM

todd/awe your right I didnt add that the tens not only do they adjust from the bottom they have one extra setting as well but i think from reading your post and mine that seems to be identical.

Matt-

There is only one suspension for the 997TT. It's called the Damptronics. It integrates with the OEM PASM.

There are no PSS9's or PSS10's for the 997TT. The PSS9's and 10's are for Non-PASM cars only and have external adjustments.

Sorry for stepping on your thread. I just want to clear the air on some of the terminology.

ALPINE_997 Dec 5, 2007 08:48 PM

^^^^ I am with him ^^^^^ - Mike don't take that in a non-manly way :)

I still want those cup holders for the 997 RSR :)

GMP Performance Dec 6, 2007 01:54 PM

I was just going by Bilstein, I guess the info they gave me wasn't accurate

ALPINE_997 Dec 6, 2007 02:18 PM

Don't worry Matt - I corrected Mike - so Mike had to find someone to correct..

j/k.

Good luck with the Sale!

Everyone with a 997 Turbo - GET A SET OF THESE WOULD YA!!

The documentation for my Damptronics includes an install guide for both the PASM compatible version and the PSS10's. I am assuming these Damptronics are the electric switchable version of the PSS10 b/c the parts diagrams and numbers are virtually identical. Nowhere is PSS9 mentioned in the documents
