Seeing as this has become in my opinion the defacto serious suspension discussion on this forum, my comment/question will be OT but here goes.
@xXDavidCXx, This gives me hope. After driving my GSW for a while I had settled on the rear spring rates need upped to level out the pitchy-ness, the Rear Sway helped but it still feels lazy. From best I can tell this is a bit of what the Clubsport S and MK8 are doing, with the rear being ~1-2% stiffer than the front but a larger split (20%)should be even more stable with less dampening.
I wanted to increase the capability/stability a bit while keeping the stock height and ride to a degree.
My plan is to keep the stock front springs with Bilstein b4's and up the rear to something about 20% stiffer in frequency with either;
1. S3 rear spring, and spacer with Bilstein b6, I think the spring and gas pressure should get me close to my target but I need to call Bilstein to confirm
2. Or piece meal coil over parts w/ 8in 350lbs spring and a matching damper (not sure what would work here)
Other than that I was going to add a 24mm front sway bar to my existing 24.5mm rear (hollow eibach us bar), this should give be about the same front roll stiffness as a GTI with the softer ride rate and keep the balance on the neutral to slight under steer side. I'll probably add BFI fcab and front camber, Eurosport mounts or TT arms. Maybe Meyle HD rear arms depending how the stock brushes look.
I think the tt arms would give about -2.5deg, What is the consensus on a good front camber number on the street with zero toe all around?
Any input you be much appreciated.
