Car is already lowered on Champion springs and has a GT3 sway bar. I also got some ERP goodies for it as well. I recently got a TPC DSC module for my 997TT and it sounds like an amazing product. I also got a set of KW V3 coilovers that are laying in my garage, I am debating whether to stay with the module or install the KWs. I have never used KWs before but heard nothing but good things about them. My car will never see a road course and is a street car. Anyone use both? Anyone with KW feedback?

 

Get rid of those KW V3's and stay on lowering springs and module!

I will help you and take those KW V3's off your hands just because I am a nice guy!! I know, I know the forums need more members like me!! LOL!

 

KW V3 is for track use and very stout.

 

KW suggests the V3 is a great setup for the street actually ....

 

Did you read my post?

They are amazing and completely transformed my 996 T!

If I had extra coin to spend in my machine above and beyond what I already spend I would not hesitate to pick up a set for my 997T!!

 

2 great routes. That's is a tough one!

 

I'd install the DSC, as it takes only a few minutes - see if you feel need for anything else with your set up- i have totally stock susp with DSC for my street only car & DSC makes a huge difference. With the champion springs & sways you may not feel need for anything else.

Took me a bit longer to install the first time. i take it in/out for CPO svc & now it's literally a 3 minute swap- (i leave the bracket in place now when swapping back/forth-& just spread out the bracket end you can see & the PASM/DSC will release- pull it out, swap wire & push it back into bracket till it clicks-

 

I have the KW V3 on my car for more than 16 months or so. My car is lowered slightly below their recommended settings and I have no issues so far. My 997TT is a DD and there is no discomfort to me as a driver. If you want a more aggressive setup, KW has the clubsport.

 

Nice comparison "Prodigymb!" I am kind of in the same boat. Have the stock shocks with the same options that you are contemplating. The TPC sounds great but, for me, does this fill the void with my track usage?


Does active suspension overrule a great suspension?


I assume the KW's are off your 996? If so,

What did you like about them in comparison to your 996 stock setup?
How do you think this compares to the 997 stock setup?
Did you get a similar feeling with the TPC module?

 

i did ofcourse. on 996tt forum people loved the KW on 997tt forum i havent seen one single good write or impression thread. 996tt stock suspension was awful and just about anything is better.

yep i gotta do some driving with the module. nice thing it took only 2 minutes to install.

nah i had Bilstein PSS9 on the 996 and they were OK. I wasnt crazy about them at all. i havent driven the car yet with the module, finishing some other stuff.

 

noone else using KWs on their 997tt?

 

I currently have Bilistiens but going the Moton route as we speak, i guess the difference with these & the KW's will be not being able to switch the ride stiffness at the touch of a button ,but my tuner assures me i won't miss it. But i'm still wondering about it, i usually always hit the sport button when i get in the car.

 

I'm going to be switching to KW Clubsport after the new year.
