Hi All
I just got my 08 128kw T5 back after having B14 Coilovers installed.
My goodness - the level of adhesion is phenomenal compared to OEM. The reduction in roll at extremes is remarkable and the reduction in float at highway speeds is exactly what I was hoping for. It is very firm but Ive exchanged bash/crash for firmness - happy with that.
Dropped it 45mm and it looks good without being ridiculous (YMMV). My business partner has just said I can have his 255/45 20" wheels and tyres as he is upgrading so although I said I wouldn't upgrade from stock 215/65/16 it looks like grip will shortly be further improved.
Very expensive exercise - would I do it again? - in a heartbeat.
