The AST 5100 Series Coilovers for the Porsche Cayman 2.7 (2007-2012) are high-performance suspension components designed to enhance handling and stability. Featuring inverted, upside-down technology, these shock absorbers are race-proven and deliver superior strength and durability. The design improves suspension geometry under heavy lateral and braking forces, making them ideal for both street and track use. Constructed with high-quality materials, the coilovers provide precise damping control and improved ride quality. The adjustable rebound feature allows for customized suspension tuning with a single knob, enabling drivers to optimize performance based on driving conditions. These coilovers are engineered to deliver better handling, reduced body roll, and increased responsiveness compared to standard twin-tube shocks.

Designed specifically for 2007-2012 Porsche Cayman 2.7 models, these coilovers are a direct replacement for the factory suspension. They fit vehicles with chassis codes compatible with the 987 platform and are suitable for enthusiasts seeking improved cornering and ride performance. The kit includes coilover assemblies with adjustable damping and rebound settings, allowing for tailored suspension setups. Installation is straightforward for those familiar with suspension upgrades, and the coilovers are ideal for street, track, or spirited driving. Proper fitment and performance enhancement are ensured when installed on compatible models, providing a significant upgrade over stock components for drivers seeking a more aggressive and controlled driving experience.

Overview

The 5100 Series shock absorbers for the 2007-2012 Porsche Cayman 2.7 (987) utilize inverted / upside down technology. The inverted design is race proven technology and produces an extremely strong damper, providing better suspension geometry under heavy lateral and braking loads as seen in a road and track environment.

The 5100 Series shock absorbers give your car a better performance than the standard twin tube design. With the 5100 Series suspension you can adjust rebound with one knob. The adjust platform allows you to adjust the ride height of your car. AST suspension shock bodies are specially designed to keep maximum stroke, even with a lower ride height.

How a Monotube design works?

Monotube design is essential for performance. The oil and nitrogen are separated by a floating piston, and allows the use of a larger piston, increasing the damper performance and sensitivity felt by the driver, all this added together produces more grip, gives more control and driver feedback from your vehicle.

What is a rebound adjustment?

Rebound controls the rate of extension of your shock absorber. By changing the rebound you can directly change the characteristics of the vehicle.
