Anyone running Tein S-techs w/ Koni Yellows?

I keep seeing people recommend the Eibach Sport Kit with Koni Yellows but I'm looking for a little more than a 1" drop.

Does anyone run the Tein S.techs with the Koni Yellows?

S-techs might give you more of a drop and it would look great, but don't forget that koni's arnt as easily adjusted as coils so you're askin for trouble when snow hits

enigmaos ran that setup for almost a year

he was in the middle perch

remember there are 2 different koni struts
the sport and the sp3... sp3 has 2 additional setting and different rebound

I'd get in contact with excelerate he'll package deal something for you so that you can have best of both worlds

don't always go by what people recommend hell I recommend koni yellow sp3 with ground-control sleeves

Tein s.techs are garbage springs.

I have them and don't like the ride at all (stock shocks). But you can't expect much with my setup. The ride is too bouncy and the drop isn't enough. Can't wait to the Tein coilovers

I had them on stock shocks and on Konis.

Soft ride....bouncy. Only good if you want a drop with no performance gain.

So it sounds like the way to go is with the Eibach Pro Kit and Koni Yellows. I've seen quite a few members with this setup. Anyone here running it? I think the diffference in the Tein's and the EPK is .2-.3 inches. Not a huge deal to me.

I'd say the best way to go would be the Neuspeed Supercup Kit with sport springs for you.
