Improving torque steer will be achieved by getting a quattro

With the Quattro system I should not have any torque steering. I wanted to know if I get coilovers will this reduce my torque steering on a FWD Audi. Also, I don't want the extra weight from the Quattro system. My custom music is enough weight!

Coilovers will not help. If one is available a limited slip differential will help thats what all the VW guys do to get better grip and reduce torque steer. Buy the way Quatro is a big pain in the ***, your concern about wieght is a good one. One other note, if you run wider tires you will notice torque steer even more. Oh wait, just get a quatro (ha ha). Some people just don't get it do they?
