Default spring/shocks will cost you $900+...

while you might not end up liking it (height)

Coilover give you full adjustability~ can't go wrong with Coilover if you can get your hand on a set in good condition for just a few bucks more~

And what I can tell you is that normal springs/shocks do not HANDLE better than the Ultras I have for sale~

Default partying because parting w/ S4... : (

i don't know how it compares with intrax c/o

but ask any Ultra owners/users...why ultras are superior...

only thing that's better is things you spend almost 2x the price~ ;-)

Default I just put a sway bar on this week (no other mods), and it made a huge difference...(m)

and that is just a 19mm one on the soft setting. The car stays really flat (very minor roll, nothing you woudn't expect on almost any high performance car) through the turns, and it really neutralized the understeer.

The thing to consider is how you want your standard ride quality. For now, I like the stock ride quality, so I didn't want to do springs/shocks. That may come later, may not...
