Default H&R coil review >

alright, so tonight i had the chance to open the TT up and see high end potential...

I'm only posting this because when looking into coilovers, i read reviews that people didnt like the way the H&R's handled at high speeds.

well i had the TT up to about 150-155, and honestly, there was no body roll, so swaying or leaning, it was stiff as could be for just having coils on.

i know most people on here wont get a chance to reach speeds like that, and I'm not condoning speeding....

unfortunately, it was just me in the car, so snapping a pic was hard, i managed to snag it around 140mph

CEL: SAI, and o2

I don't think I've ever got the needle that high before in my TT.

Default Well you got me beat.. I hit 138 in my old Mk1 smoking a Camaro before I had to shut her down.

I was coming up on traffic FAST! But she had a lot more.
