Porsche 991 coilovers from KW: Numerous products to increase driving dynamics
A higher level of driving dynamics characterizes the successor to the 997, thanks in part to its aluminum-steel mixed construction, which saves approximately 80 kilograms— the result: more stable handling at high speeds. But there is still potential for optimization. To optimize all aspects of driving dynamics, we recommend upgrading with a KW product. For a complete list of products available for your 991 model (incl. 991 Turbo S and Turbo), please visit our product finder.
Production vs. KW
Problems with the series version
Despite the excellence of the 991, the driving dynamics of selected Porsche 911 991 models can suffer. The vehicles are well-designed for everyday usability and offer a lot of body roll and comfort-oriented damping at the limits of cornering. Those who want precision, flawless driving dynamics, and a lowered Porsche 911 will benefit from a high-quality KW upgrade.

The perfect choice for track day riders who also drive on public roads. We offer technology from motorsport with uniball top mounts and damper design with track focus. This Porsche 991 suspension ensures maximum stability and direct feedback without sacrificing road capability. Body movements are reduced to a minimum.

Technology Highlights
Individual lowering
This coilover suspension offers you the maximum technically possible lowering - individually adapted to your vehicle model. Can also be changed at any time after installation.
Adjustable compression (Lowspeed)
Fine-tune the compression damping (low speed) even after installation. Vehicle handling and stability benefit from 12 clicks.
Adjustable compression (Highspeed)
Fine-tune the high-speed compression damping even after installation. Vehicle handling and stability benefit from up to 15 clicks.
Adjustable rebound (Lowspeed)
You'll feel the difference with every click! Here you can adjust the rebound (low speed) with a total of 16 clicks. This makes the riding characteristics either harder or more comfortable.
Unibal top mount
Depending on the vehicle type, the aluminum Unibal top mounts have a scalable camber setting and can be optionally adjusted in the caster. This allows the camber angle to be adjusted so that maximum tire contact area is achieved when cornering and handling becomes even more direct.

Which Porsche is better: The 991 or the 997?
It depends on the intended use and personal preference. The 991 is the successor to the 997, and according to driving reports, it provides significantly more driving stability and modern features. The 991 is better in terms of driving dynamics. However, 997 fans prefer the more direct feedback and analog characteristics.
Is the Porsche 991 a naturally aspirated car?
The 991 was available with naturally aspirated engines until the 2015 model year, for example, the Carrera or Carrera S with a 3.4- or 3.8-liter displacement. With the 2015 model update, Porsche introduced turbocharged engines to the standard Carrera models. The last 911 with a naturally aspirated engine was the 991.1 Carrera GTS, built until 2015. Apart from GT models, such as the GT3 or GT3 RS, which still rely on high-revving, naturally aspirated engines, the 991.1 Carrera GTS was the last 911 model to feature a naturally aspirated engine.
What is the ground clearance of the Porsche 991?
The standard ground clearance is approximately 4.3 inches (110 mm). For vehicles with coilover suspension or lowering, such as those with KW coilovers, the clearance can be significantly lower. To make the vehicle more suitable for everyday use, we recommend installing a Porsche lift system, such as the KW HLS, which can lift the vehicle by up to 45 mm at the touch of a button.
Which Porsche is the rarest?
The 911 R (Type 991.1) from the 2016 model year is the rarest Porsche 991. Only 991 of these vehicles exist worldwide. This vehicle's distinctive features are its 4.0-liter naturally aspirated engine from the GT3 RS, manual transmission, and purist design. It is already considered a collector's item today and fetches significantly higher prices on the used market than when it was first delivered.
