    looking to see what the high hp car are runnning for suspension set up. my car will be only street driven on rare occasions.

    i have heard of heavy springs and of welded rear struts to keep the car from unloading the front wheels.

    just wondering what is being ran.


    thanks

    I run koni coilovers front and rear, I switched out the rear springs to a 650lb spring and daily drive it.. everyones setup differs depending on car..give us a little more info on your setup.

    mark 2 gti fully stripped, all windows polycarbonate other than windshield, no heater box interior sound deadner removed, car weighs in at 2000 pounds with out me in it and a full tank of gas.

    soon to have a fully built aba running a 6262 im not going to say anymore about the engine since its not built yet just getting parts together. car will have a full role cage in it, want to drag race and maybe drive it a couple days a year or so, just when i want.
