200q20v springs on 200q10v?

[William M. Lockwood-III]

Eyvind,
I have this combination on my 88 5000tq.  I bought 200 20v H&R springs for the
car when I couldn't find springs for my 5k.  Apparently they are about 20mm
lower and 20-30lbs stiffer than the H&R units for the 5k.  These are what I
remember from I think a guy at tire rack who was very helpful.  The springs are
fine using BOGE Progas shocks in front and BOGE Sport (very rare I think) in
the rear.  Car is very stiff and a little bouncy in the back at times.
