Default For those with H-Sport Sways (or considering)

Are you content and/or do see yourself migrating to the Stasis set-up at some point?

Would your answer be different if you were a novice driver? That is, no track experience.

Thanks,

Mike

Default I'll tell you after we compare my car to Ubercar at Watkins Glen

He has the stasis setup on his RS4, but at this point, I'm very content.

Default That is he is content looking at the rear end of my car when he is not giving me the point by.

Not really, but I could not resist.

Default Mike, my H-sport sways go on whenever my exhaust is finally ready. You can drive mine & decide

The sways have been sitting in the box for over a week now

Default Re: StaSIS set up does not need rear sway bar upgrades

That is a matter of opinion, not fact. I believe the Stasis suspension was designed for use with the stock bars. However,I could not leave well enough alone and had both installed at the same time, so I cannot compare them separately. I know Stasis was interested to learn how the car handled with both and gave me some suggestions on setting adjustments after my first track session with these mods at Lime Rock.

In my opinion, the combination works very well. As Scott has pointed out, though, the rear sway bars seem to work best for our uses on the softer setting. The firm setting, especially in combination with a dialed-in suspension, may take you to an undesired oversteer in some situations.

Default very content w H-sport sway bars but will dial down to softer setting after....

i-link issue, Hotchkiss is aware of the issue and working on possible sturdier i-link plus none available in the U.S. even the OEMs at this point, had to steal mine from an s4 which was slightly thinner but is holding pretty good right now.
