Bilstein sport/hyperco perch grooving question.
#1
Bilstein sport/hyperco perch grooving question.
I have the 380 lb hyperco progressive springs from stasis and regular (rear has 2 grooves i think, front has none) bilstein sports. Supposedly the hyperco springs give a drop of 40mm all around. Should I get the shocks grooved? Which should I get grooved (front/back/both)? Anyone else running this setup have suggestions? I want a pretty even ride height all around. This is for a 2001.5 A4 1.8t quattro.

these are my settings on neuspeed bilsteins with 380 hypercos and the ride height
i have a very slight rake to my car. the rear shock is essentially at the "factory" setting and i went from a 3 finger gap (stock sport) to 2 finger gap. front is one perch down and i have a very tight 2 finger (1.5 finger?) gap.

By rake you mean the front is lower than the rear right?
So if i didn't get them grooved at all the should be about even at around a 2 finger gap? The perches are 10mm apart right? Maybe I'll get the fronts only grooved. Thanks.

yes front is a little lower. i believe the perches are 10 mm apart except for the 2 bottom ones on
the rear which are 5mm apart
