Description
Performance Shock’s Raceline suspension system for the Audi R8 is born out of the Ohlins TTX line of racing dampers designed for vehicles participating in Racing, HPDE and track related events. This kit is built using Ohlins ILX36 dampers which are based upon the tremendously successful TTX40 damper design that captured top results in LeMans, ChampCar and WTCC series.
It features a twin tube design providing positive pressure build-up and has proven itself far superior to conventional techniques used in other racing dampers. Low internal friction, vast adjustment range and responsiveness even at the smallest strokes are amongst its virtues. The standard configuration is 2-way adjustable; low-speed compression (LSC) and low-speed rebound (LSR), but is easily upgradeable to 3 or even 4-way adjustable.
A major advantage with the TTX36 inline damper is the integral reservoir that makes it very compact and easy to package (front damper), without the need to route external reservoir lines. The top eye can easily be re-clocked without opening the damper. No longer is the balancing of reservoir damping (“can stack”) to main piston damping required to avoid cavitation. With no reservoir valve, the internal pressure of the damper unit will be kept to a minimum. The low amount of hysteresis results in excellent short stroke/high force performance. The Ohlins TTX range of shocks require very low gas pressure which considerably improves grip without any loss of damping performance.
This is by far the best suspension package that you can install on your R8, period.
