getting rid of my NS springs tomorrow
Finally sick of the ride with the Koni FSD. It's a shame, because I really love the height, and it's *almost* comfortable enough, but just not quite. Too often I find myself cursing the craptastic roads around here. Sigh. I think I'm going back to factory sport springs tomorrow.

Please let us know how do you like FSD/stock springs combo
I'm considering the same thing - have FSD/Eibach kit. The ride is fine, definitely smoother then stock except big bumps. However it's too "bouncy", too much vertical movement. Also the front dropped 1.5" while rear didn't drop at all. I hate scaping driveways, underside of front bumber is trached.

I'm pleased with my FSD/ stock sport springs/ RSB setup. It reduces ...
body roll and dive, gets rid of the jarring on small abrupt bumps, and eliminates most of the car's understeering tendencies. I'd rather have coilovers for a slightly lower stance, but FSD's with stock sport springs are a very cost effective upgrade for daily street use.

Glad I held off on this combo
I was tempted many times to pull the trigger on this, but the reports mishandling big dips and conflicting information regarding bump stops kept me from doing so.
I've since ordered Eibach's matched ProSystem. Does anyone have experience with this setup? It's getting good reviews from folks with older models and MKV GTIs.

Well I'm glad I'm not the only one!
Griffen Motorwerke is doing the work as we speak. I'm looking forward to feeling the difference, I'll post my review tomorrow of the stock springs plus neuspeed RSB
