Okay, so after last Sunday's drive, I'm thinking that maybe my next mod instead of the B & B exhaust should be suspension. MoBlueTT has Koni shocks and Eibach springs, and I really like his ride height and quality, so I thought about doing mine just like his. Couple of questions:

I was wondering how the Audi S-Line compares, so I went to the Audi website, but could not find anything there about it. What is the cost and how does it compare to the Koni/Eibach setup?

I don't think I need coilovers as I don't know if I plan to do any serious track work, and I think from what I've been reading that the advantage to coil overs is that you can adjust the ride height, right?

S line. You can do better for less..

coilovers don't just give you height adjustment, but unless you are a track junkie, that's the only advantage you'll see as a streeter/casual enthusiast.

That's what I thought, but figured I'd ask since I couldn't find any info...

You have said that you used to run Bilstein HD's with the stock springs, and that you really liked the set up. I like the sound since I can keep the cost down slightly. How did that set up affect the ride quality? My woman gripes about the ride now, but will it be unbearable if I only do the bilsteins? Thanks a lot.

The Harshness you're probably experiencing will be smoothed out dramatically...I threw my stock shocks away at 5K and IMO the bilsteins on stock springs rode mucho better...

Now we're talking !!! [no coil overs for sure]

Right as usual Mr ArTT ;-P Now I can't wait to use my Ground Controls - Junkie Enough??

I guess I should start pricing.......

you are my hero. I may actually be able to rationalize this purchase to her. He-ro
