I just ordered a set of ABT springs and Bilstein Sports...and will order a Borla soon...
So, I'm looking for a good place to get them installed...Preferablly some place that knows Audis.

Thanks...

Default Autobahn Performance specializes in Audi's (in Peabody)

But they are outrageously expensive. 20% more per hour than comparable shops, and every quote I've gotten from them was double what it should have been. (ie, 8 hours for a suspension install that took three hours, etc).

Invisible Touch in Chestnut Hill I've heard good things about. They're a body shop, but they do a lot of high end work too. (There was a Bentley in there last time I was there getting a full sound system, playstation, etc installed) They did my brakes and snub mount, and did Nene's Brembo kit.

All told, they'll probably be half what Autobahn would cost.

As weird as it may sound, I would recommend giving your dealer a shot. I've had god experiences with mine.

Call my cell I have a great mechanic that did the suspension in my 01 S4. I hade him install Intrax lowering springs with Koni Adjustable shocks all around. He is ASE certified in suspension and alignemnt. He works at a small shop in Newton, MA. He has very resonably rates. The install will also include a 4 wheel alignment.

regards,

Default Go to Bernardi. They are going to install my shocks and removed my exhaust for me too.

Plus they are the best service department in the state
