Coupe Quattro Mods



Raphael asked about adding the Jacobs to his Coupe Quattro.  I
bit a couple of years ago, and installed it on my 944.  The only
change I noticed was better gas mileage, but no increase in
power.  This was also noted in dyno tests on the European Car
magazine project 924.  They added the Jacobs, dyno tested it,
and no power change, just better gas mileage.  I guess you have
to figure out how long it will take you to recoup your investment
with an average of 2 miles per gallon better.  I wouldn't do it
again.  

Ian Duff also had some good comments regarding handling. 
I've done the H&R springs and the Koni sport shocks, 16 inch
wheels.  Difference is amazing.
