Default can somebody fill me in on the PSK package?

what does it include? are any of the elements able to be retrofitted by an Audi dealer to an existing 2000 2.7T? or am I better off going the aftermarket route?

much obliged...

My understanding is that the only thing the PSK adds over the older sports package (seats and tires) is a set of Eibach springs (no strut or shock changes). The combo of the tires and stiffer springs lowers the car about 1.5" - 2".

I don't think the dealer is installing any of the kit.

The few people that have recieved PSK's have been very happy with it, although you can obviously get much more aggresive in the aftermarket.

It's really hard to find a PSK if you don't have one on order, and since I may not have the patients to wait, I may be buying a non PSK and going to the aftermarket.

I placed my order for a 2.7T with PSK a couple of weeks ago. Should arrive in two months. According to the dealer, this will be one of the first cars he gets with PSK. FYI, the option price (retail) is $1K.

According to AoA- springs are 30% stiffer, shocks 40%, rear stab bar 2mm bigger, and the car is lowered 20mm (roughly 3/4"). All this has been posted before.

According to postings by Howard L. on 3/15 and 3/16, the only change to the suspension in the A6 PSK package is an upgrading to Eibach springs (Audi part # 4B4071677DSP - $325).

how does this fit with the "just replace the springs" theory?
