Hi Hurdy,

How did you find the H&R ARB's compared to the standard Golf R ones?
Worthwhile getting the front and rear?
How did the car change?

I could tell instantly that the car was better balanced in corners and doesn't have as much roll. I'd say get both ARBs and run stiff on the rear and soft on the front if you like to get the rear to play a little more. :happy2:

You thinking of an R Dan? :party:

The H&R's were setup on mine soft front and hard rear too.

Handling was very well balanced last week on track.  :happy2:

Very low. They had an Audi R8 V10 on a month or so ago that only made 430bhp!

Each run on the same car will give consistent runs. They read accurately for whp and torque. :happy2:
