    Stiffer ARB?

    Hi all,

    New member -and brand new to the CSL-club- here, having just bought Flow's CSL.
    I've taken it out on the Nordschleife this week-end, where I'd put the PSS10 in a softer setting in order to deal with the bumpy surface. However this does create more roll than I'm used to, which I'd possibly want to compensate with a stiffer front ARB. H
    Has anyone tried the same before? And if so, what ARB have you used?

    You need harder low speed compression and softer high speed compression in the dampers....stiffer ARB will just put strain on the chassis and brackets.....pss10 not great really....

      CSL front ARB is massive, last thing it needs is a stiffer one, would understeer like a pig.

        ... which is not an option on the PSS10 sadly. I am considering the Intrax-dampers as I don't seem to be that impressed by the Bilsteins either. I have KW Clubsport on my other M3 and I seem to like it more than the PSS10'S.

          Valid point. :beer:

            Most after market ones are no stiffer or in many cases softer anyway, the only reason I changed mine was to allow me to back it off in the wet.

              Can you not change spring rates?

                Yes, but if it suddenly rains in assembly area or whatever it is useful, the intrax spring rate adjusters are only list too but they still need ride hight resetting after, apart from anything else I am a sucker for stuff that adjusts

                      I am considering this, does Bilstein offer custom springs? Where to get them from?
                      I've heard Black Falcon does customizing with Bilstein springs/dampers, might have a look with them.

                      Thanks for the advice!
