[s-cars] Upgrading B5 A4 suspension

[Lee Levitt]

Folks,

I've been running a Bilstein, Eibach, Hsport suspension on my '01 A4 1.8t for 3 years now, and am wondering if I can improve the handling by going to a different setup. For the street it's fine, for autocross it's not as precise as I'd like. Or maybe it's me. :)

I did an autocross school on Sunday, got 10 runs in on my street tires (Dunlops) and another 10 on BFG R1s. The car was a lot more controllable with the latter and I was putting down times equal to/better than many of the BMWs ( admittedly I have more autocross seat time than many of the other attendees...and the timed course was not power friendly.)

Anyway, I'd like to improve my results, and would appreciate all inputs. :)


Best,

Lee
