Just got mine in the mail... going to be a few weeks before I install. Going on stock struts as well. Switching from slammed MR coilovers.

 

Epic engineering! Just installed mine on stock shocks… They are awesome! Perfect lowering, corners so much better, and ride quality is only a tiny bit worse… Ill take pics when it settles

More info on your bump stop swap please? Pictures? Easy to do? Where did you buy bump stops? etc. Does this make a noticable difference over just the springs? I assume this is just to prevent hitting the bump stops, or are they stiffer?

Same here, Eibachs with stock struts. I also replaced the front bumpstops with trimmed ground controls. Virtually no sacrifice in comfort but noticable reduction in lean and dive/squat. I love it.

Eibach pro kit is the same as the Epic kit from Fred Beans... correct?

thanks for the chart... I have MR Coilovers and they are a bit harsh so I want to put some springs on my stock struts. I love the handling of the MR's but will to sacrifice a bit to get a good year or two out of my stock struts. Accourding to this chart I'm thinking Eibach (MSI/Epic), HTech, Ion, Progress, H&R, or Rallitek should suit my needs. Any recomendations?

Here is a link to a video of stage 1, 12-2 method. I made the video to talk about some new exh tips, but if you wanted to listen to some more Hog-zawst! Here you go...

New customer here... I went with the 12-2 wire concept. Sounds great at idle and low rpm. It could be a little louder after the turbo spools. I plan to keep it this way for awhile.
