OK, time to get serious on this, since that 987.2 didn't pan out.

I'm now down to the Ohlins v. the Cayman R setup, and also thinking about "how bad could it be to do myself, on my patio, after watching a few YouTube videos?"

The answer to the second question is probably "that's a good way to make your Porsche into a lawn ornament," but it's a simple enough procedure that I'm tempted to do it anyway."

The answer to the first question is really, "do I want to spend the extra $400 for Ohlins, and is having an OEM setup important to me?" Just typing that out suggests the answer(yes, and no), but I need to give it a little more thought.

EDIT: I should note that the weakness of the shocks was pretty obvious at the track, when the car moved around way more than I liked, and checking after getting home I can see the front bump stops are pretty shredded, so I think it's time. Plus I'm in a good mood after Tuesday, so why not spend some money.
