I've done some research and have decided to save my money and get the Blistein PSS 9 Adjustable Suspension. So far the best price I have found is at ************************************************************ for $1,849.00. Anyone know who else is out there that can beat this price?

Thanks. That is a good deal and free shipping. Wierd, I searched on e-bay for it but it only showed results for the 987 the time I did it.

Elbachs and stock is what I have ran for awhile. I'll have a used set of Elibachs in a few weeks.

The ride is a little firmer, than stock and I have never had a problem with this setup at all.

I have gone on many road trips at 8 - 10 hours one way. ANd I was very comfortable. The back roads are alot more fun, I feel less body roll.

I have not DE'd the car so I can't give any feed back on that.
I say go with it.

Gary
