OMG WTF DIDN'T I DO THIS EARLIER!?!?!?!

Okay, they are kick ass, with one minor nitpick that I hope a little tweaking will resolve. The nitpick being the rear end feels like it pogos ever so slightly, even when on the interstate.

Test run I did was up Emigration, then back down I-80. Taking turns in Emigration (was a bit careful due to water runoff), the car just stuck to the ground and turn. Car didn't roll at all, no squeeling from the tires, nothing. Just point and go. Could have easily gone 5-10 mph faster than when I did those turns with stock suspension.

Turn in is so much crisper. Steering feels a bit heavier as a result. But move the steering wheel and the car will go there.

So now all I gotta do is figure out how to get rid of the small amount of pogo'ing.

Settings:
Ride height 25.5" (but its still settling)
Front adjustment - 7
Rear adjustment - 5
17" OZ SL's w/ 225/45/17 Goodyear F1-GSD3's (well worn at 5/32" tread depth) and 36/34 F/R air pressure.

Which reminds me, anyone in the SLC area want to shelter a homeless ANCA driving event attendee? I haven't reserved a room at the hotel yet so i might as well see if anyone would be interested? I'd rather spend that money taking said individual out for breakfasts/dinners:)

you? neilm? bueller? - it would be fun!

Anyway, i can't wait, it's going to be soooo much fun floggin' these pigs!!!

Have a comfortable sofa or a twin sized aerobed you can sleep on. And I'm pretty much right next to downtown SLC.

Regarding the car, having an issue with the TCU/tip-chip that got installed. Suspect I'll have to go back to the stock TCU. <a href="http://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/2326509.phtml">B5S4 Forum Thread</a>

But my god, the suspension is awesome. Totally worthwhile upgrade and wish I had done it earlier.

I'd love to do a comparision between our setups, i was really close to getting the pss9's but opted for the tracksports (i like the linear spring rate choices).

This time you've gotta recommend the mexican restaurant:P
