I heard the same about the B8 so I bought the Koni Special active with Eibach pro kit lowering 3cm.

I can say I am absolutely satisfied. The car is a real train at the curves without being stiff.

Pros: satisfied, real train at curves
Cons: without being stiff

Went with Dobinson 3” coils, struts and shocks (heavy duty shocks for the rear). Truck feels planted now, a good bit firmer and much of the dive is gone.

Pros: truck feels planted, firmer
Cons: much of the dive is gone

I would suggest at least better shock absorbers (the emu ones are good but I've heard that the Koni adjustable shocks are a lot better especially for the body roll)

Pros: better for body roll
Vehicle: Suzuki Jimny

Mine on my Corrado VR6 are set right in the middle and are as smooth riding as any car. It also corners better than any car I have owned.

Pros: smooth riding, corners better
Vehicle: Volkswagen Corrado

I have Koni Yellows and stock springs on my '93 Corrrado SLC (VR6) that's in storage. I put the dampening right in the middle and they rode great and my Corrado handled great.

Pros: rode great, handled great
Vehicle: Volkswagen Corrado

Installed used OEM AWD Tig springs/shocks Upgraded to Koni Yellow Tig shocks Installed SuperPro control arm bushings/brackets to bring alignment into spec and hopefully help with high speed steering vagueness

Pros: improved alignment, better steering
Cons: handling hit

Those Koni's rusted out quickly on an old integra I had. Seemed cheap out of the box. Have had several Bilstein setups. Never an issue.

Pros: never an issue (Bilstein)
Cons: rusted out quickly (Koni)
