I have Konis on my 1950lb 912 and they feel great.

I have the green/yellow Bilstein combination on my 2700lb G50 Carrera and they feel great. Very compliant. My car sails over rough roads without a thought while my friends in the newer water pumpers are rattling their teeth out and go much slower.

The 68 912 had lighter bars than any other year or model while the G50 had the stiffest (other than Turbo.) I don't ever plan on increasing torsion bar size on either of my cars.
