If so I like the ride height.
Here's my ride height with Bilsteins and Hks Kansai springs
There not too far off so I should be fine for the speed bumps

yes that is the ride highet pre set. When I had the corner weight re checked with me in the car. all my aligenment guy had to do was turn the passenger side rear a turn or too and it was 50 50 with me in it. Two of my buddies run the same set up and the ride height is the same as mine.
the reason I said it looked corner weighted is because evos the rear will sit lower then the front.

I'd consider something like the Ohlins more of a benchmark, thana basis. We know that we aren't yet in any position to compete directly with those brands, but that doesn't mean that we haven't set our sights high.

Ooh I see. The TSO's are a version of our Select coilovers that are made to Pure Tuning's Specifications, so in that case they use PIC's as basis, I misunderstood what you were saying.
PIC is PIC. They aren't exactly made from scratch, as in the individual components are outsourced from all over, but the final assembly is done in our factory in Taiwan. We have simply taken a common design and found ways to improve on it.

I was born ready. Shoot I was nearly made in Taiwan myself, glad the rents decided to make the big move to Canada.
Nothing wrong with "Made in Taiwan". There *is* something wrong with "Made With No Regards for Quality or Performance". Sometimes, people have trouble seperating the two.

I'll be doing a complete writeup later this week, but as for a lap time comparison last year on Mueller tuned JIC's I went 1:43.9 at Mid Ohio. Last weekend at Mid Ohio I went 1:40.1. The car had very few changes from last year, the biggest being the suspension and tires (running 245 Hankook Z214's vs well worn (ie. fast) 255 RA1's). Power was virtually the same, and the car was absolutely fantastic to drive.
Then you factor in the support (PIC was on site all weekend, and Pure was there too), you cannot beat these for the money. Out west you guys have Robi, Paul and John, here in the Midwest we have PIC.
