The only negative with coilovers on a Porsche is moving the weight from low in the car to higher in the car. But to what extend I have no idea. I'll take the better ride quality, with higher spring rates, over weight position.


I had to check the website. Rawknee will like this.

"Since the air-cooled Porsche AC systems never performed that great, the builder decided to remove the AC to reduce weight and not waste any of the engine crank power. The car still possesses the factory heating system"

Yet they kept the sunroof. Loose the sunroof and keep the A/C. You will probably still loose a couple pounds overall.
