My car has PSM so I don't know about that. But surveying their site they don't differentiate other than the Cayenne.

Mine will ship tomorrow and can't wait to get them installed!

No pasm version available. Manually adjustable compression and rebound combined on one ****. Consider getting the extenders for the rears and modding for access if your planning to make frequent adjustments. I'm more of a set it and forget it type so I left my bose sub box out for now until I'm confident of my settings.

Any advice for the settings? Should I leave at factory settings? My car is a daily driver and I don't track it.

I would start at 10 turns in from full soft front &
14-16 turns in from full soft rear.

Full soft is counter clock wise ...

Nice!

Don't forget to leave the metal locator rings off the front. Not needed on the BC's. I made the mistake of re installing them and it's a waste of time and added weight...

Were you ever transferred to OKC? I'd be curious to see the quality and ride of the BC racing before I bite the bullet with a set. I'm in the OKC area.

my company is moving me on 3/31 and I already have a house in Edmond, near Quail Springs Mall.

I've transferred my PCA charter and hoping there's a good Porsche scene there.

Total junk. Had them on one of my evo track cars.
Best cheap coilovers are the kwv3s

Haha. Read first page and posted my opinion.


Good luck. Maybe they have changed over the past 3yrs

No worries. I surveyed here and on FB and pretty good responses. I don't track and I'm willing to give them a try.

Thanks just the same.

Bummer. That's one of the reasons I always do my own wrenching. On a 1-10 scale it's no more than a 5 in difficulty.

Hate to hear that, as I really want to know what you think of your set up.
