XYZ Racing Racing Spec Coilovers — Porsche 992 CARRERA-4/S CABRIOLET (without hydraulic lift system) 2019-2026

Standard PASM on the 992 Carrera 4S Cabriolet is calibrated to serve the full spectrum of what the car does: grand touring, spirited fast-road driving, and occasional circuit sessions. That’s a wide brief, and the damper calibration reflects it – not wrong for any one application, but not fully committed to any of them either.

The Racing Spec coilover replaces that factory system with hardware aimed squarely at circuit work. XYZ Racing derived its damper settings from direct participation in the WTCC – not a test rig, not simulation – and the specification reflects what a Porsche 992 Carrera 4 Cabriolet genuinely needs when the brief narrows from grand touring to timed laps.

What this coilover does for your 2019-2026 Porsche 992 CARRERA-4/S CABRIOLET (without Hydraulic Lift System)

The Carrera 4’s AWD layout routes drive torque to the front axle while it’s also managing steering inputs – a combination that, on the 992’s rear-biased platform, puts specific demands on rear damper tuning. Let the rear settle inconsistently through a corner and the front’s traction and steering response follows suit. The Racing Spec’s circuit-derived calibration provides the mechanical consistency that keeps the rear planted and the front communicative, without relying on PASM’s electronic intervention to paper over an unresolved mechanical baseline.

The Cabriolet body adds mass and reduces torsional rigidity compared to the coupe; the 992’s standard suspension tune accounts for both, but with compromises baked in throughout. Height adjustability lets you set ride height and corner geometry from scratch – on a rear-engine platform, a few millimetres of height change has a measurable effect on front-end behaviour that no software adjustment can fully replicate.

About the Racing Spec coilover

The Racing Spec sits at the competition end of XYZ Racing’s range. It was built for track racing from the outset, and its damper settings were obtained through direct participation in racing events up to and including the World Touring Car Championship – a meaningful distinction from setups labelled for track use but developed from road-car data. The specification prioritises consistent damping behaviour under repeated and sustained circuit loads rather than the broad-use compliance that road-biased units must balance.

For 992 owners running significantly upgraded or near-factory-race-specification cars, XYZ Racing also offers bespoke shock absorber units beyond the standard catalogue. Supply a detailed breakdown of your modified components and the circuit you intend to run, and a custom specification can be produced for your exact setup.

Fitment for the Porsche 992 CARRERA-4/S CABRIOLET (without Hydraulic Lift System) (2019-2026)

Chassis code PO29; covers the Porsche 992 Carrera 4 and Carrera 4S Cabriolet from 2019 through 2026. This listing is for cars not equipped with Porsche’s optional hydraulic front-axle lift system. If your 992 has that option fitted, a different specification is required – confirm via your vehicle’s build sheet or original order confirmation before selecting.
