Yeah you are right. I am "obviously suffering from a horrible spring/shock setup". OHLINS suck!

Its certainly more abusive, but the risk is overblown in my experience. We'll see though. ;-)

Default maybe you should read it again:

I didn't say "your car"... I was giving examples to support what Eric "saw". Of course it's possible to look at a car driving down the road and say: "wow, after the car passes over that big hump in the road the front bounces once and sticks while the rear keeps floating around... he needs more rebound in the rear."

I can't say a damn thing regarding your car or your setup because I WASN'T THERE!

Default My apologies. My frustration is with Eric not you. And the way in which he conveys

info, not with the info itself. The Penskes could very well be better than the OHLINS and if they are that is great because OHLINS is the best product on the market for our car right now (IMO) and if there is a better product things are only getting better.

I don't even have OHLINS anymore, as of now I have stock suspension and in 1 week I won't have an S4.

Default so about the suspension.

when purchasing from startup racing, will the valving be pre set or will the customer have the option to have them custom made? if it is sold pre valved, are funk and EF the test mules that the packaged suspension will be modeled after?

Default That would be very cool. I didn't know you went with the Ohlins? That rocks! I can't wait to play

with my car either.
