The MK2 GT3 Lift System Great info and pics from Mjones on Rennlist
• The system weight of all components of the Front Axle Lift System is approximately 13 lbs (6 kg).
• The lifting operation is completed in approximately 2- 3 seconds.
• Electro pneumatic function module with pneumatic compressor, pressure reservoir and
valve block unit
• PASM dampers on the front axle with additional compressed air connection underneath
• The upper and lower end position of the system is recorded by means of the pressure in the dampers.
• The pneumatic compressor generates pressure of up to 247 PSI (17 bar) if necessary. The pressure
reservoir has a filling volume of approximately 2.0 l and supplies the pressure for system operation after use of the compressor.
The system does not use an "airbag" like the Cargraphic Airlift System and has no accumulator and takes a bit more time to raise the car

So the question is this , if the lift system is 3k + and a new spoiler is $200 or less, what's the best way to go...
I'd say either do aftermarket or just plan on a few extra lips in the garage

That's 6 spoilers and change.
I put almost 40K miles on the GT2, and only needed 2 spoilers.
Granted if I was more anal probably would have been more like 5.
30mm is just not a lot of lift.
If it was say, 60mm, then they got something there.

But, 30mm hardly seems like it will help you avoid destroying the lower lip?
