Perfect! Anyone care to comment on the ride quality of the springs only? I love the drop, but don't want to sacrifice the crappy ride I have always experienced with just springs...

Ride is subjective but on our rubbish UK roads the H&R springs are very compliant. I think the trouble with just springs in most cases is when the lowering is too much for the standard dampers. A mild drop is usually ok.

Thanks for the reply. Any reason why he chose that exhaust over the supersprint/evolve race unit?

He liked the sound, the supersprint is probably a better exhaust but he got the exhaust before he spoke to Imran hindsight what a bitch!

Looks great Matt!

My car is going to Lee tomorrow and I'm having my wheels the same colour as yours (took inspiration from yours when I saw it a few months back).

Can't wait

I believe he bought the Eisenmann before he knew about ours. The Eisenmann is a great sounding exhaust and very well built of course but completely catless the is very loud so I think the customer will be changing his mid pipe back to the standard unit.

They should have been in the Evolve-R box. I will arrange for some to be sent to you.

Looks Awesome Imran..My H&R sport springs arrive next week..

That car is a mirror image of mine with the Eisenmann Race Exhaust ,and painted wheels..
Thanks for posting, gives me a good idea, how mine will look like with drop.

Is there a vid of the exhaust tone?

I am still running the OEM DP's with N55 mids and Eisenmann race axle back..Its loud, but not annoying..
Was considering installing catless DP's..
