    Hi just wondered if anyones got this set up with standard UPS (Sport) suspension and if the damping can work sufficiently well enough. I've heard that syar bars should only be changed to beefer ones with a suspernsion upgrade aswell. What are your views on this guys?

    Cheers guys. I have mainy heard good things about this upgrade, however I also heard it was a good idea to upgrade the suspension to decent aftermarket as they will generally be able to rebound quicker and deal with the sway unloading quickly in a difficult situation.

    I'm only wanting this for spirited road driving not track or anything seriously quick.

    yes an aftermarket suspension is recommended.
    do you have an extra $1000 to spend on it now? if so go for it. if not, just spend the $125 and get the RS4 rear sway and do the suspension when you have the funds.

    Just FYI, Upgrading the Rear ONLY is the way to go. Don't touch the front sway because the purpose of a stiffer sway bar is to reduce understeer by correcting the rear.
