Thanks. It has more threads to lower it 2"-3" more but when i spoke to midnightTT, he had talked to bilstein and told him the lowest settings meant for the pss9s, so thats how it was setup.

that is probably the lowest you want to go with your PSS9's. Here is a thread that explains why.

I really like my PSS9s once I dialed them in. Others recommend different brands (JIC or Moton to name a few) because they allow more travel when the car is lowered. I believe because you can lower the strut body (threaded) where in the Pss9s you can not.
I think FVD spec Pss9s come with stiffer springs allowing you to lower the car a tad more and rely on the spring rates to keep you off bump stops. The shocks have the range to compensate. I think I run my car at 3 and 5. It's softer feeling on small bumps but handles much better than stock.
I set up my car low but ended up raising it about an inch (still much lower than stock) due to the front end running out of traval and bucing mid corner. It was very eerie.

Pss9's do lower the car and improve the handling but it is an expensive mod before you have finished and I have a fantastic road directly up the hill from our house but now I can hammer the TT so much, my devoted wife just ends being car sick

Could someone please translate this into English...
