I'm using Gaz coilovers and matched springs on the front. Fully rebuildable 3 year guarantee, adjustable damping and only £150 per side. Stunning improvement over my Bilstein/Eibach set up and I thought that was good.

By the way Kris, have you got a spec for your TD?

I got mine from Pro-Tec in Preston (01772 620532) but as Tomas says, Rally Design sell them too. How have you upped your boost - Unichip or some other kind of chip? Just thinking of getting something for hacking around in that's cheap to run and insure. Wondered about a 1.5TD and then maybe upping the boost a bit for some extra punch

it takes a bit of time to get the smoke to an amount your prepared to have, the adjustments are just a guide line, i havent actually turned the fuel up a great deal.

been like it on mine for 2 years now and never had a problem.

adjustable shocks are expensive. you could by the complete koni kit which would work out cheaper than buying the shocks on their own. or get coil overs
