New Addition To The Family

Well not what most will think but its still my baby I picked it up a little over a month ago from the original owner. 05 Cayenne S. It was all stock when I got it. I installed Coilovers, 22" GTS rep wheels, cold air intakes, exhaust bypass and still waiting for my new Red S emblem the stock Silver S was damaged.

The only thing left is finding a set of GTS or Turbo fender flares and maybe projector headlights.

You should consider putting a firewalls on air filters, because engine sucks in hot air coming from exhaust manifolds and reduces overall performance.
Clearance is dope. I considering to lower mine too, but I'm afraid of wooden box feeling after lowering. Not too stiff?

Thanks for the tip. No that at all, I have 30 way adjustment with the coilovers.

Nice looking ride. I really like that color but I'm a sucker for deep dark reds.

Very nice looking... Congrats!!! Love the color, and it looks like it's been very well cared for. I'm really curious on your coilover setup. I have a 2010 GTS with air suspension, and the H&R lowering module. I'd be really curious to see what your ride is like, and how your p!g handles. My truck isn't that low except on the "Load" setting. Yours really looks great!

I installed the Hanks Hotrods resonated bypass pipes on mine, and the sound is amazing. Great mod!

Love it, enjoy!

Thanks... I'm having an issue with the company right now just hoping they will step up. I'll report if they do.

Thanks... The ride is great but I've always lowered almost everything I've ever owned so I really don't know what a stock suspension feels like

BC Racing.Fronts at 10 and rear at 12.

My issues with them

I ordered a set of BC Racing Coilovers for my 05 Cayenne S Had a shop install them, get called back to the shop and the guy tells me we have an issue and shows me the front struts are very close to the CV boots I said they were marked left front and right front and he asked me to look at the stickers and sure enough the right front was on the right side.

BC Racing put the wrong stickers on the wrong sides and I had to pay to have them switched around. I called and spoke with BC Racing trying to get reimbursed for that and was told sorry that's not part of their warranty I asked what? What does this have to do with warranty? Someone on your ended wasn't paying attention and I should pay extra for that?

I asked to speak to his manager and was told he was in a meeting and I said I would call back. I was then asked to send a picture to prove they installed the stickers on the wrong struts which I did. After they saw that they then asked for prove I paid the shop for the install and to have them switched around in again after sending the bill they then asked how I paid, I told him really? After having sent everthing you requested your now going to ask how I paid?

In the end I told him I'll never buy anything from BC Racing again and if anyone ask what coilovers I'm running I'll make sure to tell them how I was treated.

I've never heard of BC Racing before, they only came up on a search for coilovers for Cayenne's. My brother just bought a new Touareg and wants to install coilovers but guess which one's he won't be buying?
