Enjoy.

the renn-tech module is definately worth the money if you were to go with that particular module. you can slam your car or go up to stock or anywhere in between that makes you feel comfortable and i believe can do damping rates as well or something like sport and comfort

All I really want is an off/on switch in the cockpit! I need to lower the car when it's parked and raise it to stock height when I start the motor and drive off. It would be OK if it raised up automatically, but I want to be able to order it to "drop" by pushing a button.

I wanted to lower my Bentley, paid $250 for links, do not think it is worth spending $2500 for a module!

I agree. The modules I've seen will only allow a maximum of around 40mm drop. After that I expect there are geometry issues to deal with.
Also, I wouldn't fancy your chances of a friendly reception for any warranty issues if the repairer found evidence of a non-standard electronic gizmo being installed in your car.
The links however will just pop off and you can put the originals back on - no one's the wiser.

Yeh but with the links you cant get maximum raising and lowering when you want and links in the long run are bad for your car, IM not positivie but i believe it is the renntech module u can pull out and its like it was never there. and the renntech i think might be less that 2500.and with the right module u can get maximum height or maximum "droppage" when desired.

I just ordered a set for my Bentley. Thanks for the info.

here is the link to my car. same color.

I had it lowered before. But had to change it back for a short time. But these links seem better then what I had before.
