►Porsche's 997 was lauded for its precise handling characteristics and comfortable ride on almost any road. However, struts and springs wear over time, leading to a need for replacement. Installing a set of coilover in place of the original suspension is a great way to revive and improve those sharp cornering traits without eliminating all of the previous comfort.

Almost all coilovers, including the Bilstein B16 kit installed in this video, will have a firmer ride than stock suspension. Each suspension manufacturer carefully chooses spring and damper rates to improve the 997's backroad and race track abilities without causing pain and suffering on the street. They'll also lower the vehicle, giving it a more aggressive stance.

Follow along with Mike Hidalgo, FCP Euro's Professional DIY'er, as he takes you through a Bilstein B16 coilover install on a Porsche 997 Carrera S.
