Apollo that other 9e 28 you mentioned was sold on for £68,995 when it was retailed - not bad for a car with nearly 60k miles albeit with an amazing recent 9e forged engine build :)
That was such a bargain, that car also had the Bilstein damptronics too.

Nine excellence are selling another 9e28 with very low miles and the Bilsteins plus that eye wateringly expensive exhaust.

Wow 9e just sold the low miles 9e 28 for £79,995

I think cars with 9e power kit are selling for decent premiums to standard cars looking at the last two sales of 9e 28 997.1 turbos. Nice to know ;)
 
Wow, thanks for sharing that, I do need to update this thread with the new suspension and map Ken developed on our cars that everyone can now benefit from :) Even with pump fuel, the car is motorbike fast.
 
The racefuel really only makes a difference from 130mph. Below 130mph it makes no difference. Real world that 600LT would struggle. On track I'd struggle unless I lay on coilovers like yours. What were the Eibach like v Bilsteins B16? :)
 
The Eibach's were not great, Ken did warn me before I put them on saying it would ruin the ride, which it did... even with the DSC module. The B16's are so much better. I'll let you have another go just as soon as I get those new tires fitted :)
 
Good to know - many thanks look forward to it :thumb:
 
Been meaning to update this for a while, back in 2018 Nine Excellence finally got a hold of a set of Bilstein B16 Damptronics for the car. Anyone who was looking for these around that time will know how difficult that was.

Those were fitted which along with the already present DSC controller which vastly improved the ride.

Over Christmas, I had the new Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tyres fitted, 245 fronts and 325 rears which goes without say are a vast improvement over the Michelin pilot sport 2.

Car rides so much better now, hoping to get more use of it this year.

1. DSC v B16 with DSC vs
2. Tractive with DSC vs
3. Stock suspension with lowering springs and DSC
