I know that Bilstein is kind of default suspension upgrade for Porsche...
I was in Germany recently and met few local Porsche owners. Couple of them mentioned KW suspension as a replacement for 993 original kit...

Does anyone have any experience with KW or heard anything (good or bad)?

The KW setup is a very good piece of kit but cannot be compared to the Bilstein HD's as it is fully adjustable and also costs a lot more money. However if you are considering a fully adjustable setup, then I have heard only good things.
 
Indeed, the shocks are coming in at about £1000 where the KWs are about £1400. If you are considering spending the extra why no the Bilstein PSS9?
 
I really can not make up my mind... On a track it is good to have stiffer shocks, but in a daily life I prefer more comfort ride.. I was told that the most comfortable adjustment of PSS9 is approximately what we have with the standard M30. I thought of having something a bit less stiff...
 
Never heard good things about PSS9s except when attached to rice burners...

KWs or Bilsteins both have top reputations in the Porsche market and are the choice of several Porsche race teams.
 
d'oh! sorry Maurice! I used to be into rice burners before I got into German burners [;)] and PSS9s were de-rigeur - but they were renown for being harsh and rock hard. Nowadays I'm just into rice cookers [:D]
