Yeah I went to Independent I,P OR I.T whatever

did the rear sway bar, dv, and some others etc.

I don find any difference after installing the sway bar...?

Well, I drive like a *****, slowly as hell and umm -_-

I made really lousy power turns with esp? off

....still the same.


My other car, when I installed the sway bars and everything, it gave me quick cornering and very good response, but not this car Audi a4.

hmm...worth it? haha

I did not try that, but I usually turn around ramps at about 90km (50 recomended) and 40km (30 recomended), not that I scared of cornering, but don wanna burn up these good tires ... and gas ? may be.

I'm guessing that the heavy *** Audi may not be as drastically affected with a rear bar only (driving like a wuss) compared to many lighter cars.

When I installed h-sports (F&R) on my B6 (A4 Avant), I initially didn't notice much difference either. As I spent more time driving the car, I realized that I was taking corners and off ramps at higher speeds as well as doing lane changes without any "fanfare". That's when I recognized the true benefits

Yeah well I don't doubt that I.T guys didn't do the right job and Bryan is really nice guy, good mechanic after all

Anyway I posted the other threads relates with center differential to make from awd to rwd

Some guy also gave me a good hint on stasis center differential thing and I would like to get some opinions from you guys.

Itz not something I wouldn't just do it, but I am considering it, cuz then you will basically own three different style of cars. fwd, awd, rwd correct me if i am wrong.

The thread is on audi a4 first page i think.

NO question that Bryan@IT is awesome.

Here's some info: Stasis Centre Diff upgrade

I understand the benefits are quite noticeable on the track. If you're not tracking or at the very least driving enthusiastically (read: driving like you stole it), this may not be a worthwhile upgrade for you.

i'm surprised you didn't notice any difference after putting the rs4 rsb on the car, but based on the description on your driving habits, i don't think the stasis diff will be worth installing, especially since your engine is stock.

I now kind feel the difference, yes, the corner got better

I am thinking about getting the torsen center differential (make a4 into rwd)

what you all think?

I thought, if i pus rs4 rsb, i would get more over-steering

anyway let me know some info on the center differential

Is it okay? performance wise?
