Air Cup lift system over Coilovers
 

What is everyone's thoughts/concerns on Stance Parts Air Cup lift systems? I am currently running RaceComp Tarmac 2s and with my front splitter I have trouble getting out of my garage.

Will they effect performance on track? This is a track car that will see back roads and and some street driving but mainly track. So I do not want to compromise my new coilovers.

They seem like a good price and this company has been around for a few years with good reviews. Let me know what concerns everyone has! Thanks!

I have no experience on ether of those but my guess is you will loose performance/gain function. You have a $2k set of dampers. You will be replacing it with a $2k set of airbags and dampers. $1k for dampers and $1k for bags.

So the point of the system is they SAY that it will only act as a spacer. You are not running on the bags...

I've had them for 4 years now (specifically Stanceparts Aircups over PBM Pro coilovers) and haven't had any issues. They are correct in saying that, while they're deflated, they don't affect performance at all, as they just behave like an aluminum spacer at the top hat. HOWEVER, when they're inflated, the car rides like absolute shit (since you have an air spring on top of a compressed coil spring, plus your shaft is at the end of its travel, so it's not working correctly). As long as you understand that, and lift the cups only to go over obstacles/ramps, then you're golden.

EDIT: Oh, and btw, I track the car fairly often (once a month before Covid...), doing drifting events, and you can't notice anything is there. it really doesnt affect performance (see @Tatoyota_86)

Wow thank you, that is exactly what I am expecting. I just want to be able to enjoy my car more often then just the track. And near me it would be helpful to say the least if I could rise it up when I needed to.

Any noise in corners or anything? Clicking noises?
