Re: Shocks/Spring Mods - 86 8V Scirocco

[Ryan Schuermann <ryan@radio.nwpros.com>]

I love my koni's (yellow, sport?). I bought the whole set used
here in Houston and total install with my father took around 2
hours. It's a very simple process to replace your struts. The
koni struts lowered my car about 1.5" and improved the handeling
during turns immensely. Downsides are a much rougher ride and getting a 
tow tuck that doesnt #!!#$!@ up your car is hard to find.
