When driving large sweepers like freeway on ramps at high speed I experience what I can only describe as front end scrubbing. Not understeer, more like the front is just not planted and tracking. Things get better with a full tank of fuel. Is that just the nature of the 914, full tank factored into weight bias, or can the suspension be tuned to emulate the weight.
Here is what Im working with; -19mm adjustable sway-bar set about 1” back from full soft. -Koni yellow adjustable shocks -Stock front torsions -Rear springs are aftermarket (reddish orange color) but I do not know the poundage. Any input would be appreciated. |
