Which compensator is better? original or scat?

Post by petew »

So after my first motorsport event, I need to fit a camber compensator. What I'm wondering is, which sort is better?

The scat style "push up" sort...

Or the oldschool sway a way reissue...

They'll cost pretty much the same, so which do I choose?

Modified "pushup style" as shown allows suspension tuning by preloading the axles.

Original Porsche springs had a bolt on each end for this.
