Identifying your strut tube

The four EMPI strut insert variants for these chassis differ by (1) inner vs. outer threaded strut tube, (2) damper setting (2015/755 vs. 1505/1160), and (3) Euro vs. US version. Confirm the configuration on your car before ordering — using the wrong insert is the most common mistake on these chassis.

About Bilstein B6

Bilstein's monotube gas-pressure design has more than 60 years of OEM and motorsport pedigree, with particularly deep history on the air-cooled Porsches. The B6 series gives these cars firmer damping and faster response than worn original units without changing ride height.
