Fitted my lowering springs. Ballache of a job. But got it done. Get to g throttle body done next.

Quick question tho.... what kind of springs came of your car? Mines is an FR tfsi. It had Eibach springs on it. But don't think they were lowering ones

chaps info pls.

fitted this at the weekend. yes i can hear it more now (coming right through the glove box lol)

but sometimes when i hit 2500 revs i can hear it stuttering, is this "normal" ?

 

[Joshkcupra]

Sounds like it's struggling to get air into the system if it's stuttering?

 

[Rob_Talisman]

yeah i thought that, but how...... the filter and pipe is alot bigger than prev and straight in...

It's like sucking air through a straw if the diameter is smaller the air will sound more streamlined, if you were to suck air through a tapered tube the sound would be different as there isn't such a tight vacuum. My Neuspeed Pflo used to stutter at high end as the amount of air required it just couldn't keep up. You should invest in a proper filter

Fitted the Linea R Grill to my FR. I think it has really improved the looks.

Just had the springs fitted an hour ago. But I can already see/tell that the alignment is well off. It'll be done this week

 

[JamesLCR]

Shnazzle what springs did you take off? Obviously standard. But mine came with eibachs already on

Not sure what to reply to this hahaha.
Yes the standard springs came off. Have to say they look decent for having done 50k

 

[JamesLCR]

Lol. I know what you mean mate. Felt weird typing it haha.

But when I fitted my apex springs yesterday. I took off a set of Eibach. Not sure if they are lowering springs or not. Did anybody else have Eibach on their car before fitting after market springs??
