Anyone upgrade to Koni shocks?
I just learned that the Koni for TLS has adjustable spring perch. That allows car to be lowered 25 mm (~1 inch). This would be another way to safely lower the car w/o swapping out the springs. What experiences do you have with Koni shocks?

Yep - you can lower your TL 1" using stock springs and Koni Yellows. I also had them on with Comptech springs. Sold them later because I was not happy with the drop of Konis + Comptechs. But they are excellent in ride and quality plus the have a lifetime guarantee.

TL Daddy, just curious exactly why you weren't happy with koni/CT set-up. I first installed Koni's w/oem springs but I wanted to go a little lower and reduce the 1/2" difference between left and right sides with those damn oem springs. No complaints except that with just koni's and sways, the car felt more nimble whereas now it kinda feels a little sluggish after adding CT springs.

1/2 inch difference between righ and left side? First time hearing this, what is the deal with this difference?
How is the ride with koni/oem compared to knoi/CT and oem/oem setups?
If you were to do it all over again what setup would you go with?
Thanks!
