    Eurocode parts installed

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    To day I rented a bay with a lift and got most of my Eurocode parts installed today. the front sway and end links were fairly easy to install nothing crazy there. Where I ran in to issues were the Rear sway bar and top part of the bottom diff mount To get the old rear sway off I ended up taking the back half of my exhaust off which I wasn't expecting. with the exhaust and rear sway removed I then went about installing the Diff mounts. strait forward if everything is removed. now the top of the dif mount I ended up having to loosen the rear mounts to be able to lift the diff up enough to drop the ring on the top part of the mount was not easy. My AK should be here with in the next 2 weeks and that is a VERY easy install with a lift at the same time I will be checking torque on all the sway bar bits.

    The way home I could tell a huge difference in body roll its now on par with what I remember in my old RS4

    another thing I was surprised with was how dirty and "rusted" the exhaust was after 5 months and 9k Km looks like either the borla or AWE track in the near future

    Nicely Done! the AK will will be a subtle but noticeable difference. The EC sways and and AK made a huge difference on my Stage 2 tuned S5 cab. Steering and body roll felt like 911 territory.

    Let us know a before/after feel when you install the AK, I'm curious on how that will be.

    so after one day of driving it around like a jack ass, breaking my tires loose on a hand full of turns these are my impressions. 1, I can take turns with alot more force then i could before with out the tires breaking loose, 2 DRASTICALY reduces body roll its now on par with my old RS4 while in dynamic highly recommend it really changes the carving attributes of the C7.5

    What setup you did? Rear hard, front soft?

    I live near Mulholland Highway.
    I drive it daily, and it was a blast with the A6 in a stock configiration.
    Now with the Eurocode Sways installed, that 4000 pound car is on rails.
    Silly amount of fun.

    I just installed the 034 Rear sway and end links on the S7. No need for any changes up front. Great addition

    Might be a stupid question... but about what you call "body roll", is that also like seeing the hood going up when accelerating and plunging down when braking? Even on straight lines?

    I have changed for bilstein B12 and shorter springs on my old bimmers (Z4M and X3 3.0si), and clearly the body just does not move vertically at all when accelerating and braking. Ok, torque must be far less than the S7 stage 1 but still...

    I was womdering, are the eurocode parts changing anything in that? Or must only be the shocks abs?

    I'm afraid the sways don't help in terms of squatting and diving. 034 rear did not reduce squatting. Lowering with gete module helped little bit

    You can also lower the car 17mm with vag com programming. With cete module you can go further, i'm lowered 20mm in winter and 30mm summer. I'm wondering maybe there is a way to program the suspension stiffer in dynamic mode. One guy was able to do it on 2008 s8
