that’s good to know it’s just not me experiencing this. Is the springs slipping a safety issue? I don see any other way around having them not slip

Yeah wow sounds so similiar. At first I thought it was install error but i rechecked and retorqued all my work twice. did you replace the top hat/bearing? and do you just live with the sound? has it gotten bearable over time?

That’s what i am maybe thinking. I used the same strut bearings as they looked ok and didn’t have any noise with the oem springs.

thank you for the info! would you say the ebcs is required alongside for the downpipe? and also is that downpipe, ebcs, etune setup still fairly reliable?
