yes thats the lowest, unless sport I or II goes lower i havent tried it yet. I just did what the instructions said " after installation raise the airmatic then turn it off" and the car dropped to that level, brabus only gives 1 inch, if you want the slammed look go for kleeman, they give the best drop but it's the most expensive module.

raise vehicle and turn off..

Nice car! When you say raise the vehicle then turn off... You probably mean raise the Airmatic using the factory Raise Vehicle button next to the gear shifter, then wait until vehicle raises, next lower the vehicle using the same button.

The reason for it is that while parking, Airmatic doesn't continuosly reads the sensors so the module height changes would not show immediately (unless you drive for a bit). Airmatic DOES READ the sensors when raising/lowering the vehicle using the factory button, so each time you change the lowering module setting you should do that exercise.

The same thing is tru for the new Digitally Adjustable RennTech Lowering Module, you can even download their user manual explaining everything step-by-step:

I will be installing one of the new RennTech modules in a day or so.
I'll post step by step pictures.
It's very easy to install and requires no real special skills.
Just need to find some time as Ivan has me overworked

BTW, nice car unclebenz.. looks really good.
