997C2S - Considering replacing suspension with PSS


Recommended Posts

Hi, there, it's my first time to post thing in here...thanks in advance!

Info of my car:

MY05

Carrera S, 6-speed manual, without PASM, instead the -20mm Sport Suspension with mechanical LSD installed.

Country I am located: Hong Kong

Just acquired my car and found that the -20mm Sport Suspension is a bit too stiff for the road condition here in HK. So I am considering of possible ways to restore some bits of ride comfort.

Options:

1. Go for factory standard suspension (to give up the -20mm good looking but in return better ride quality)

2. Go for Bilstein PSS system

My quesions would be:

1. What would you recommend over here, factory or PSS?

2. If PSS, anything that I need to pay attention to? Say whether I have to dis-arm the mechanical LSD or I can keep it as-is?

3. If PSS, whether it should be PSS9 or PSS10? I checked the official website of Bilstein but noticed that 997C2S should only go for PSS9 but not PSS10. I am a bit confused here.

Your advices are greatly appreciated! Thanks all!

any thoughts to share? thanks!

Changes to your suspension won't have any impact on your LSD. Bilstein makes PASM and non-PASM versions of their PSS9/10, as I understand it. I believe the only difference is the PSS10's have 10 adjustments vs the 9 available on the PSS9's. I'd contact Bilstein to confirm this info.

Everyone that has PSS9 or 10 seems to swear by it. I'm considering PSS10 for my PASM-equipped 07 T4S. You would get more feedback from the Rennlist forum and the 6speedonline forum. Suggest you post your questions there.
