Default MS Ohlins reservoir mount locations

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/47960/s4_1.jpg"></center><p>Searched the B5 S4 archives and came up with these older posts showing some mount options. Anyone have more recent pics? I've heard that the new kit comes with different mounts that those early kits which further restrict options. Just downloaded the install manual from the STaSIS site and it still talks about installing both reservoirs on the firewall.

Can anyone comment on how these handle in the winter (ie are they bouncy when cold)?

That's a dirty engine bay for someone with the scratch to spend on Ohlins...

Default Are you looking at getting the motorsports? I'm definetly going to need a ride when you do :-)

I've heard such great things about them from people who are very picky about their suspension, but I have yet to experience them for myself!

That's right - put those reservoirs where they'll get nice and hot... that's useful.

Yeah I'm considering it. How do you like your pro-s setup now that you've had them for awhile?
