I'l go straight to the conclusion. This kit changes my car into a completely different machine.
I've a 2015 Audi S3 with OEM suspension al around (meaning 10 years old lol). This kit not only improve cornering performance, it also improved acceleration and braking performance. The steering turn in alot faster and shaper. I think most important improvement is high speed stability (100+ mph). It won't keep bouncing when it go through uneven road at high speed. Just one "up down" motion, that's it. It gives you all the confident to drive at hgih speed.
My kit has standard spring with 9k/9k spring rate. I want the rear to respond faster/oversteering. I lowered the ride height about 1.5 inches all around. I set my damping at 12 click (half way). I'm concern about the ride quality to be too harsh. However, even my 70 years old grandma won't complain about the ride quality lol.
The build quality is top notch. They also included the front adjsutable swaybar endling, which is a nice touch cuz you WILL need it. The stock rear swaybar endlink can be reuse. However, it'll make sense to upgrade them as well. They didn't include any instruction as to what needs to be reuse. You'll need to reuse the stock rear spring top mounting rubber piece.
The price is a little high IMO. I think they increased the price in 2025, not sure it's a Trump thing or not. I recall the kit used to cost $1200 which is a great buy conpare to those budget kit like ECS and APR in the Audi space. I recommend this kit as a performance upgrade. The only question remain is, how durable/long lasting this kit is.
