Default Sport suspension difference if any, between 2005.5 and 2006

I bought OEM Sport suspension from a 2005.5 B7 and putting it in my 2006 B7. Is there any difference between 2005.5 sport and 2006 sport?

Don't know the source of the difference, but I've read on here that the 2005.5 suspension is 10mm lower than the '06 sport.

Sport suspension used to have a 20mm drop but because of all the damn SUVs on the road and Audi wanting to maintain an excellent rating in frontal collision, the sport suspension is now only a 10mm drop.

Default I looked at a lot of pictures and it seemed like the only sport susp.

that had a big drop were the 2002's... from 2003 all the way to 2006 (including the 2005.5) it all looks the same. I compared a 2005.5 to my 2006 the other day in a lot and couldn't see a difference.

Depends when that 2006 was built, recent builds have only a 10mm drop now
