Suspension for S5 FC

Hey guys,

What kind of suspension are you using in the front of your FCs to handle the extra weight of the 20B.

Thanks

Tein HA coilovers.

The weight isn't that much more (depending upon how much of the stock components you leave in the bay) and you won't need special struts/springs just because of that. Are you keeping the AC system, heater core, stock bumper, stock hood, lighter wheels, etc? This will all have an impact.

Mine...mainly for track driving as it would probably be unbearable on the street with such stiff springs, but those are easily swapped.

Double adjustable Konis f/r custom valved and dynoed by Tri-point with Ground Control coilovers.
600 lb. spring up front and 400 lb out back.
Not running yet.
