Thanks. Now to try and get them without having to pay the stupid import tax.....


You could try the B14s 47-127708 which are 2/3 the price but without the damping adjustment.

Dell.

The "iSweep DCC Canceler kit" says it's zinc coated billet housing with stainless steel brackets... anyone had (probably severe) issues with the housing pitting and corroding? As a corrosion engineer I can tell you that's an odd/poor choice of materials. Also $480!? Can you not just use VCDS to tell the ECU that the car doesn't have DCC?

Can't be coded out and therefore EPS cannot be turned off. The KW kit is garbage. I didn't inspect the iSweep kit, but it worked perfectly for over 18 months for me. I've just bought a FL 8V and when I eventually put B16s on this car I'll get another iSweep kit.


RS3 8V FL - bone stock...for now.

RS3 8V - eTuners Stage 3 480hp.

Does anyone have any experience with the above kit versus the Clubsport version at more than double the cost?

That’s good to hear the kit is reliable, but not great to now have to factor in another £400 on top of the B16s... might just stick with my Eibachs for now.

Aye, it's a tough pill to swallow. You'll also need a full geom on top  :blink:

 

But they're definitely worth it mate. I'll never fit springs alone to a car again.
