Waaazooo

Jason, I have questions about the ride quality. I'm looking to lower my s4 but want it to ride like stock... Maybe 10% stiffer. No bounce nothing crazy

ECS Tuning-Audi

Coilovers will definitely ride a little firmer than OEM suspension. Ride quality highly depends on how low you have them set. If adjusted within their average lowering spectrum you should experience rather good ride quality. But below the recommended adjustment you may have to sacrifice some ride quality.

I hope this helps!

Jason,

Several questions here....

1. The ad states "Street Performance", are there other types?
2. Are the springs used in the coil over system in the ad linear or progressive?
3. Are there different spring rates we can choose from?
4. I noticed that the dampening are fixed for the system advertised in this ad, are there other systems that allow for dampening adjustments? Rebound/Compression?
5. Would you recommend camber/castor plates? ***I'm new to Audi and AWD, perhaps it's not camber/castor plates for Audis but something else that performs similar....

Thanks.

1. H&R also offers the RSS+, which is a motorsport quality suspension as well as the Ultra low, which is for customers who really want an aggressive drop from their suspension

2. Springs are progressive

3. No different spring rates you can choose from unfortunately

4. The RSS+ is dampening adjustable

5. Due to the suspension design of Audi's camber/castor plates cannot be used. Although other remedies such as adjustable control arms that can be used to dial in camber.

I hope this helps!

Thanks Jason, your answer most definitely helped. Just starting to shop around for "stuff" now that I'm out of warranty. My S4 is my daily driver but I also enjoying an autorcross or two when I have time. I also attend track events (1-2 times/year). Want something that works, not looking to slam the car to the ground for looks. I ran with Bilstein PSS9 a while back but found they didn't control body motion that well and made the switch to KW Variant 2 which I was happy with. Are there other products that you would recommend? Again, I'm new to Audi (came from a long line of M cars, for your reference).

ECS Tuning-Audi

If you liked the performance from KW's they also have applications for your S4. They have V1's V2's and V3's.

V1's being your basic height adjustable coilovers, V2's are height and dampening adjustable, and V3's are height, and double dampening adjustable to really dial in your suspension.

As for other products what else would you be interested in, we have a bunch! I'll be happy to help!

Feel free to PM me as well.

Jason,

From my understanding, based on the design of the coilover systems and design of the S4, once installed you can't really reach the adjustment **** (for dampening). I believe there are systems where you either use an app on your smart phone or servo motors with controller inside the vehicle to make adjustments. I rather manually (mechanically) make the adjustment than going the more complex route of either using servo motors or phone app. Can you confirm and make recommendations? Thanks....

Jason,

Suspension is on the priority list for now. Probably a good idea to do the coilover and adjustable control arms at the same time right? Hopefully save some labor cost? I'm assuming doing the control arms would mean an adjustment too....

ECS Tuning-Audi

You would be correct as most you need to remove the shock.

But the H&R RSS+ have the adjuster on the bottom of the front shock as well as near the top on the rear shock. These both should be able to be accessible with out removing the suspension. You still will more that likely need to remove the tire though or at least have the vehicle on ramps/jackstands.
