I need some suspension advice! I bought a 914-6 track car last spring and it is very soft. I don't know what I have installed yet but I suspect I need an upgrade over the winter. The car is a 2.8 liter with full cage. Any recommendations as to torsion bar size and rear springs? The car has front and rear sway bars, Bilsteins and monoball
front mounts. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif)
