My 997 photo shoot in Westchester, New York.....
#17
FWIW, I did drop my car with TechArt springs and they have been perfect. Absolutely no problems with the PASM on my car at all, drop of 15mm (looks perfect), and seems to have sharpened up the handling just a bit. I don't track my car and thats why I went springs rather than C/O's and even with my GT3 front bumper, really don't scrap the front much at all (and even when I have, it's a cheap lower lip that is easy to change out). I'd say go for it.
I like both .. and if springs are the 1st choice he woiuld be very happy with Techart . I do have a picture of the spring side by side with the coil over if it helps as well as a few from the installation.

Nice ride however I'm trying to understand why HRE Competition wheels on a C4 cab weekend cruiser? The stepped lip and shorter thin 5 spoke design make the overall wheel look to small for a wide body....

I also had the Techart springs on my Turbo and liked them . I switched to damptronics and there is a great difference . The labor hours to do either is nearly the same and it does take time . The parts themselves have a price gap but in his case if he wants to adjust the ride height the Bilsteins make that possible plus the corner handling contrast between the springs Vs coil overs is different . With the springs I felt that the tires absorbed more of the lateral force wheras the damptronics suspension shares in the process by absorbing some of it.
I like both .. and if springs are the 1st choice he woiuld be very happy with Techart . I do have a picture of the spring side by side with the coil over if it helps as well as a few from the installation.
