Bill,

Good point.  I have Eibachs.

Charlie,

I take it you're a guitar player then?  You should get an 18W kit and build 
it.  That amp is a blast!

Back to S-cars...

I have installed Bilsteins on a number of Audis and in every case, I thought 
they were underdamped to the point of being hardly any better than a good 
stock shock.  So, I figured I'd go back to Koni this time and see how they 
work on my S-car.

I think the only type-44 or larger Audi that I ever rode that had enough 
damping IMHO was one of Scott J's customers who had some fairly exotic 
coilover setup that I rode at Grattan a few years ago and I forget the brand 
of shock.  It seemed to tame the springs reasonably well.

Sincerely,
