Thank you insite.

Another fine in-depth analysis by a skilled driver with a well tuned Boxster chassis for all of us to see. Penske has been doing this stuff forever on all their competition suspensions but they keep the results under lock and key. Nice to have our own forum race tuner who clearly understands that getting your suspension dialed in requires math, measurement... and testing. Definitely not a bolt-em-on-and-go proposition. It looks like you are getting close to hitting your ideal numbers. The car should feel great. Thank you again for sharing.

I found the ride height differential very interesting. Something Porsche figured out a while ago that I would not have guessed. Have you compared dampener performance at different operating temps? We wrestled with this doing prototype suspensions on motocross bikes. Shock fade was a big problem on early long travel systems during a hot day at the track.
