Hey guys,

I was wondering what the consensus is for the best suspension mods for the money. What can I do to reduce the body flex and vibration while at the same time reducing body roll through the corners??
Any suggestions as to what the main components are that are recommended??
Thanks in advance.

I've got the BMR Shock tower brace and Subframe connectors. They definitely help.

I've also added the '01 SLP Bilstein Suspension which makes a big difference. It's not a low cost mod though ... in the $1,300 range installed.

In this order of best to least usefull:

KBDD Subframe connectors
Nitto Drag Radials
BMR Strut Tower Brace
BMR Lower Control Arms I have an A4. LCAs are more important for an M6.

Weel if you wnat more g's lower it with the Eibach prokit. Awesome stance just drops it 1.3" but some lca relo brackets to gain traction and if you really want to buy a bigger sway bar and some adjustable shocks.
