Default Sorry, I'm very tired and that review was just a stream of consciousness

I must have implied that I was still using the bar. I removed it before installing Eibach. The Neuspeed 22mm rear bar WAS set to soft though.

Order of my suspension mods:

Stock(2 years): Ok I guess?

Stock w/22(2 years?): WOW! Much better than stock!

Stock(3 days): WOW, you sure this isn't my boat?

Eibach(1 week): There we go!

more for the track but this was the best for my price range.

Default I feel that both the Eibach's and Vogtlands are priced fairly.

Sounds like the Vogtlands are quite a bit more firm than the Eibachs.

yes... also add in the stasis Streetsports. I never really looked into the Eibachs.

Default I think the streetsports are too soft for this heavy Audi.

I've heard a lot of reports of them being bouncy as well.

Default its funny how no matter where someone is from, they speak like they have the worst roads in the

country.

Except for Tennessee, where everyone thinks they have the greatest roads because the state spends so much money on them (probably because they are getting kickback from the construction companies). Apparently, Tennesseans must not leave their state much.

Im quite happy with Georgia roads, btw.

Default my buddy has then on his apr stage 3 and i think the ride is fine. A little soft on the track but

great for the aggressive street driver.
