things i've noticed after lowering

midpipe-back Remus exhaust H&R Sport Springs Bilstein grooved shocks awesome upgrade. tightned up the suspension alot, and the ride quality is nearly the same. Ride height looks alright on stock 16's...but I'm gonna let the springs break in and settle all the way...then drop it more with the grooved shocks :D Things I've noticed: 1)Bye-bye bodyroll: Wow, I took it on some narrow twisties near me and all I gotta say is, wow. It's almost to the point of being on rails...atleast compared to non-sport stock. I notice coming out of turns that there isn't that feeling of the car returning to a level position...cause it never really rolled too much to begin with. Love it! I can't imagine what it woulda been like with race springs...or sway bars to go with it. 2)Tire screeching: I notice now taking turns I used to take at the same speed...my tires now screech a little. I don't think this is a bad thing though. It's almost as if now I'm keeping more tire on the ground, and letting quattro do its thing.(?...am i right on this?) 3)Ride Quality: Basically stock...only noticeable on harsh bumps and when you are really driving it hard. |

What could I do with aftermarket swaybars to further decrease understeer or even promote a lil oversteer? |
RE: things i've noticed after lowering
Yeah swaybars would make a huge difference... if you go with the h-sport ones you'll have some oversteer. Talk to Rick at www.performancepartsstore.com or rick@performancepartsstore.com and he'll hook you up. That's where I got mine.

Yup they are. http://www.h-sport.com/cgi-bin/EDCst...atalogno=22801
I think rick will sell them shipped for 380 or something. |
