Default Will the ECS coilover kit be OK to use?

or will this put too much stress on my shocks and coils and cause them to fail prematuraly? Id probably only lower another .5'' but i am afraid that this could really hurt my performance on the springs and shocks. Feel free to flame.

BTW- Bilstein shocks with Neuspeed race springs. B5 A4 1.8TQM

Default yea why not? won't change anything in terms of affecting shock life

i think you're confusing this with the issue that arises when using stock shocks with aftermarket springs. the springs are lower and thus naturally compress the shock more. However with springs and shocks, both are better "lined up" in terms of their travel and compression, no matter the perch setting.
