Hi! really nice your gti!
Here is Aluízio, that was talking with you on the DSG LSD topic.
Another mod I'll do in my gti is to install a coilover. I'll probably choose between Bilstein B16 or KW V2 (or even V3).
My main doubt is about the maximum height: As the car is my daily driver, I don't want a really low car.
Do you know how much is possible to up the car with the KW V2, comparing to your car height on the photos you posted?
Hey what's up Aluizio! Yes, I hope that helped man!
I've had both suspension set-ups on different cars. Bilstein suspension is very very good especially the B16 PSS10! However after owning both, the valving on the KW is superior in my opinion.
I ran the Kwv3 on my racecar, and now kwv2 in my GTI.. KW has a stock ride feel, and the rebound adjustment and height adjustment is very easy to do.
After installing, and taking those photos I decided to raise my car back up 1" for clearance, also had the fenders modified to run 245/40/18 tires. I'm trying to get the most tire I can fit. The fender had to be cut out, and the fronts had to be rolled. It's best to avoid scraping and rubbing as much as possible. The KW allows for maximum ride height flexibility.
B16 is also very good, it just comes down to preference and I feel KW is my brand of choice. You can do much more with the KWv3 if you want to track the car. If you want a good daily driver coil over KWv2 is for you man! Good luck with your build man!
