Phil love the new sig!
I would definitely recommend H&R. Very pleased with my set-up. I get a lot of use out of my car, I have since driven to Virginia Beach (600 miles+ one way) and Joliet, Illinois (830 miles one way) probably around 4000 miles total since installing and the car has held up great. Even on New Jersey roads.

If you want the lower look then definitely go with the race setup.

I have the sport springs, they have a set-up for your car as well. Only sport though not race. They even have spring and shock combos.

you are going to run into some real difficulty trying to drop close to 2" on springs. To me .3" isn't a big deal especially when comparing Megan to H&R or Eibach or even Vogtland or Neuspeed. The last 4 of which actually have a following in the Audi community, I can't say the same for Megan

Understandable.... But when u mod your car, do u do it for others approvals or for your own personal preference? Its not like people are gonna be like oh that's sweet looking.... Oh they're megan springs? Nvm that's ugly LoL... And besides I'm poor and at the moment that's all I can afford LoL

I get what you are saying but at the same time you'll know what you have under there. If I want to do something, I try to do it right. And only once, you have the real possibility of putting in **** springs and not liking it, only to have to replace them.

I'm just sayin you do what you want, but if I were you I would wait until I had the money to buy decent springs. You'll be glad you waited, trust me.
