Suspension

CeeBoogie · 10-14-2016, 09:52 PM

In the next year or so I would like to get a F13 M6 and I wanted to know what would the best suspension option be. I was thinking of going the competition package suspension route instead of getting springs and different shocks and struts because I would like to use the damper settings. If I were to get the competition package suspension, would I be able to use a flash to tweak it to the specs that the 600HP competition package is on? I keep hearing that that particular model handles better, and I'm not really a fan of cars slammed to the ground so that might be the route I wanna go. I know 10mm isn't a lot, but from what I see in pictures it looks nice enough to me. Anyone care to chime in on this, the more responses and insight I get on this the better to help me choose what I wanna do!

Nice!!! Do all competition packages come with the same suspension or just the post 7/14 have the lowered suspension?

OP: for the price, you can't go wrong with KW V3. Don't get the EDC delete, just code it off and remove the EDC module. You don't have you slam it, but coilover allow you more adjustability to your taste.

I wanted to be able to change the damper settings like on the stock suspension so I think getting the KW V3 wouldn't make that possible?

That is correct. KW HAS is another option that retails OEM struts.

So I'll be able to use the stock damper settings with that set up?

Correct. KW HAS allows you to adjust the height, but retains OEM struts for damping adjustment. You cannot go wrong with any KW suspension product.
