The left lane on the 91 fwy out where I live is not that smooth and yes I can feel it more in the A6 than out Lexus E350 but both cars can feel the uneveniness of that lane. Move over one lane and it is smooth as silk. Maybe some day in the future I can give you a ride.

Do you have any side pictures of your A6. Would like to see how low the drop is with the Stasis suspension.

Here are a couple of pics of the car before and after the modifications. They are at different angles but I think you can see the difference in the ride height.

Looks to be well over an inch. Where in SoCal did you get it installed?

There are 2 types of Stasis dealers:

STASIS-AUTHORIZED DEALERS
INDEPENDENT PERFORMANCE CENTERS

According to Stasis, you only get their factory matching warranty if you go with their authorized dealers. All of the ones that I have seen are Audi Dealers themselves.

Installer Search
http://www.stasisengineering.com/dealers/search

Price from the "Stasis Authorized Installer" aka Audi Dealer near me:
Stasis Suspension Kit - $1,295.00
labor - $750.00
ca sales tax - $100.36
subtotal - $2,145.36

I measured it as a 1.2 inch drop from OEM sport, which is already, i think .75 - 1 inch lower than OEM non sport.

Here are some measurements I performed on my A6. At the front of the of the bumper to ground I measure about 7". To the back portion of the bumper I measure about 6.5". According to C&D test data the ground clearance for an A6 with 19" sport package is 4.6". Have no easy way to measure the actuall ground clearance but to date have had no issues with clearance other than being careful when parking.
