Yep i was refering to turbos.

But "normal" 16v's suffer with bad camber if lowered to much. you would need irmsher correction bushes.

Look in my garage at my old Turbo's

I would say go for coil overs if you have the cash - but in all fairness a calibra likes a 30mm drop and not much more, if you really deck it it feels all out of balance - drives stange.

Thats my experience anyhow.
