987 Suspension upgrades?

JST · 10-06-2020, 11:22 AM

Took the Boxster in for a tech inspection for a track day, and the shop suggested that the shocks are near end of life. Not too surprising, I guess, with 52,000 miles and probably 20 track days on the car, but if I'm going to replace the shocks I might as well do an upgrade.

The Spyder/Cayman R upgrade was popular a few years ago, but the shop suggested Bilsteins (probably PSS9s, but maybe just this "Sport" setup, need to clarify) might be better and more durable, and cheaper.

Any thoughts on this?
