Thanks - They're the Porsche Cayenne Turbo up to MY 2006 or later? The Koni FSD's dont seem to work with lowered springs. You know if anyone is running that combo? My other option is to just wait a year and get a Q7 with Air!

Have you heard of Jinke Spring buffer, I am thinking of buying a pair for the rear. It is suppose to help with the bounce.

I have no experience with them, but I dont think its a good idea to put anything into the springs. Did you get them?

the problem is not the spring it is the shock. it is not valved properly for the spring size and rate you installed... it is engineered around factory specs. the travel and dampening is set up for something completely different. if you want to remove the bounce you only have a few options. install stock springs and live with the ride height, install matching shocks that are made for the springs or uninstall springs and stock shocks then install a proper coil over suspension.
