997 Coilovers by KW Suspension: Driving Dynamics in Perfection
The Porsche 997 has the potential to inspire genuine driving passion, but its standard suspension cannot always fully realize this potential. If you don't just want to drive your Porsche 911 997 but want to experience it, you need an individually tuned damper setup. The Porsche 997 coilovers by KW offer a noticeable improvement: more precise handling, greater stability when cornering at high speeds, and a driving experience that matches your demands exactly - whether on the road or the track. Have your 997 lowered, then let HLS lift it at the touch of a button. Don't just drive a Porsche. Drive your Porsche!
Why a Porsche with a KW suspension is the perfect match
The factory suspension
The 997 is considered a milestone in Porsche history within the 911 series - a puristic, agile, and emotional vehicle. A true Porsche 911 that thrills in every corner. However, the limits of the stock suspension become apparent when driving in a very sporty manner or on uneven roads. This can lead to spongy handling and a lack of subjective driving safety at high speeds.
The KW lift option
Despite sporty looks and more driving dynamics, everyday life with a lowered Porsche 911 (997) can be a challenge. This is where our Hydraulic Lift System (HLS) comes in. It combines the performance of the suspension with a hydraulic lift that raises the vehicle by up to 45 mm at the touch of a button. This means your Porsche no longer gets stuck on steep driveways or kerbs.

Technology Highlights
Customized lowering
This coilover suspension offers maximum possible lowering, customized to your vehicle model. You can also change this at any time after installation.
Composite spring disc
The height-adjustable KW spring plate is made from a resistant and friction-optimised polyamide composite material with a stainless steel insert. In contrast to anodised aluminium adjustable spring plates, the polyamide composite material prevents possible oxidation.
Hydraulic lift system
With the KW Hydraulic Lift System (HLS for short), the body can be raised at the touch of a button, even while driving, for more ground clearance. Obstacles such as speed bumps or steep car park ramps can be easily overcome thanks to KW's HLS.

Technical component reportFrequently asked questions - Porsche 997 suspension and 997 turbo coilovers
Which suspension is the best upgrade for the Porsche 911 (997)?
That depends on the intended use of the 997. Those who mainly drive on the road will benefit from the KW V1 entry-level suspension or our bestseller KW V3. Those who let the tyres glow on the track at the weekend are at the right address with the Clubsport products. Maximum flexibility is available with the KW DDC ECU and our hydraulic lift system (HLS).
Is lowering possible with the Porsche 997 suspension?
Yes, with KW, your Porsche 997 can be lowered individually and steplessly. Depending on the product variant, you also benefit from significantly sportier driving dynamics and a visually appealing vehicle height, without neglecting everyday usability.
What's the difference between the V3 and the V3 Clubsport?
The main difference lies in the field of application: the KW V3 is made for sporty and performance-oriented drives on public roads. The KW V3 Clubsport was developed for ambitious drivers with a trackday focus. This suspension focuses more on its motorsports components, and the damper setup is even more sporty. Uniball top mounts are also available.
Can I combine the Porsche 997 suspension from KW with PASM?
If your car has PASM, our KW coilovers usually replace the standard PASM system. A direct combination is technically not possible. However, if you want adaptive damping, the KW DDC ECU is the perfect alternative: it offers electronic damper adjustment with several modes, comparable to PASM. Stay tuned for another adaptive damping solution for models with PASM, coming soon!
