Just make sure you properly oil the K&N filter and let it dry for a couple days before you drop it in into the car

Access to a good spring compressor?

Going to change center diff fluid too? Suggest brake fluid (every 2 years) and possibly power steering fluid (depending on mileage) while your at it.

Post pics after... bet it's going to look great

When I do the brakes I'm doing brake fluid change as well.
Plus power steering fluid as well.

My son has done a few sets of springs and coil-overs :0)...he's a mechanic
and is the one who got me into Audi's (check my sig)

Phase 1 is done.

Got the H&R Sport Spring & Bilstein Sport Shocks installed tonight.
Only took a couple hours from start to finish.
I'll drive it for a couple of days and let the suspension settle in before I
have the alignment done. Then I can mount the new wheels and tires.

Phase 2 will be all the fluids....oil...trans...diff...steering.

Phase 3 will be the new caliper carriers for the bigger rotors...Hawk pads...SS lines and fluid change.
Then new filters...K&N and cabin.

Then a good cleaning and buff
