Default Suspension Mod recommendation for me...
Here's the deal:
I have a 96 A4 2.8QMWS that rocks on accelleration and braking. I'm looking for a suspension mod that will (in importance)
1. Perform better under accelleration, braking, turns.
2. Lower stance (about 2 inches)
3. A good value
4. Won't dramatically harden or soften the ride.
4. self-install mod

Thanks to all suggestions

Default Stock struts with the H+R springs will suck. Plus you have a 96 right? It's must be time to change
the shocks and struts anyway. Go with a good aftermarket dampers like Billstien(sp?).
