Default KMD Tuning. Alignment

How much have you guys paid to have your TT's aligned at KMD (4 wheel alignment). Let me know, thanks in advance.

Default depends on whether or not you have coilovers and have corner balancing done.

typically, an AWD alignment is about $100-$125
add corner balancing for an additional $100 or $110

total will run you in the neighborhood of $200-$250 with coilovers.

damn...2 things:

1) kode, how do you always manage to reply so fast? It's like you have push messaging for Audiworld or something. haha.

2) that's pretty steep but as you and many others mentioned, Danny is the man to see. So I'll pay his price.

3)And by the way Kode, I see from your signature that you got your Haldex Race Controller installed. Does that give you controllable transfer, like with a Subaru Sti? Or is it full time 50%/50%. Can you put 95% rear, 5% front. What sort of toll is that going to take on other parts of the car? that is all...whoops, those were a lot of questions. tia.

Default 1) need to work on computer wired to the net, 2) just go for the regular

alignment...i think you have H&R, right? some shops charge you around $80 at the least...Danny takes it to Eurotire...probably a little more than that. I took mine there myself...was about $100 for AWD alignment...i added corner balancing for another $110, if i remember correctly.

3) Just had the Haldex install this past Tuesday. I had a DOA unit that I had to return and exhcange for a working one. its a variable unit...but shifts more to the rear...i think up to 40% more? the only 50/50 Haldex out there is the Dahlback version...but twice the cost if you want to go there. no one here thinks its worth the cost.

Default Can you manually adjust to the 40% and will it stay there?

or does it do everything on it's own based on where IT thinks the traction should be?
