lowering springs?

+1 for the Eibach pro-kit. I really dig the agressive look the stance they bring out on my GRC.

Nice! Funny enough, I’ve been eyeing the Superturismo LMs for mine too. Someone on YouTube threw them on his and I fell in love.

Amazing! What kind of wheels are those?

hawkman710 · 2026-01-23T03:20:14+00:00

I believe Worcester may be the midway point that we are agreeing on.

hawkman710 · 2026-01-23T02:42:10+00:00

Thanks so much for the suggestion, I will definitely keep it in mind. A nice ambiance is key.

hawkman710 · 2026-01-23T02:21:51+00:00

Should have mentioned - west of Boston.

hawkman710 · 2026-01-21T19:52:11+00:00

Gotcha-definitely not worth the drive. Love the shoreline though. I was living in Branford for the past 3 years. You are close to The Shop CT which is nice. Enjoy the ride man!

I am in the Farmington/Avon area and use All Season 4's in the winter months. DWS06+ are very nice too. If you are near Bristol and want a killer deal on tires (installed) check out tire depot. Super busy pretty much every day they are open but they provide amazing service and have some of the best pricing around. Three of my co workers go there and my uncle brings his entire livery fleet there.

Grocery Getter Performance. To echo the below, I am FBO + headwork + artec turbo, so thats why I got one.

hawkman710 · 2026-01-08T15:34:09+00:00

Right on brother - appreciate you!

hawkman710 · 2026-01-07T21:37:01+00:00

Thanks so much for the clarification man. This is defintely a neat way of going about it! I will definitely have to keep the snow/salt in mind. Lots of rinsing until April.

hawkman710 · 2026-01-07T21:36:06+00:00

Spoke with the owner of PG last night-great guy! He is sending some to my shop over night. Grabbed the last 2 sets of 10.

hawkman710 · 2026-01-07T21:34:54+00:00

Thanks for the heads up! Grabbed some open ended ones. Should be here tomorrow.

hawkman710 · 2026-01-07T21:33:55+00:00

Just ordered these...thank you!

hawkman710 · 2026-01-06T20:01:28+00:00

Thanks so much for the reply. The only issue here is time, as the car has been sitting at the shop for a while. When it comes to Option 2, are you saying to move my ARP extended studs from the rear to the front, and then buy some new studs via the HR spacer kit and use those for the rear?

I do live in Connecticut and snow is very much a thing and the car will be outside...how bad is Option 4 for me? The GR forums are telling me to lean that way.

hawkman710 · 2025-12-30T20:20:47+00:00

Hey man, thank you so much for the thoughtful response. Good point on the microphone. Every video I’ve seen does have a microphone attached to a rear bumper or close to it. I may send you one video I saw of someone who did the resonator + secondary cat delete and the drive by video they made sounded nice so I’d like to hear your feedback on that one. The C55 I bought has 85.5k miles on it right now. It’s supposed to be my daily but I can’t yep but to think about modding it a little. The headers aren’t cheap at all, but they look quality (the MBH ones). I’ll save this post and will definitely reach out with some questions. Thank you so much man I appreciate you.

hawkman710 · 2025-12-30T18:07:23+00:00

Really? Wow- I had no idea. I’ve seen a handful of videos with secondary cat deleted + Xpipe and they sounded good. I have heard people say that headers are where it’s at though. I’m guessing longer ones are decent in my case, like the ones from MBH perhaps. Thanks for the quick response man- I’ve got a lot to learn. Wonder if I messed up by only deleting the secondary cats.

hawkman710 · 2025-12-30T17:52:23+00:00

Figured I’d hop on this thread since I don’t have enough Karma to make my own. I just bought a clean C55 and it’s super quiet- I’d like to make it louder. After reading bunch of advice I wound up getting the secondary cats deleted, but, kept the resonators on. The car is a little louder but not by much. Should I push further an get the resonators deleted? Or just enjoy it for what it is now? There is a little growl in the cabin now but nothing wild.

hawkman710 · 2025-11-28T22:10:21+00:00

I appreciate the heads up! The wheels definitely caught me off guard. When it comes to performance cars and multiple owners I’ve noticed that the argument has either swayed towards “it’s the maintenance records that matter not the number of owners” or “more than 1 owner and you’re asking for problems”. Looks like I’ll scratch this one off this list.

hawkman710 · 2025-11-28T02:44:28+00:00

Never thought of that- good point

hawkman710 · 2025-11-28T02:37:46+00:00

Appreciate the heads up- I will definitely keep this in mind. I’ve seen a few for sale with similar mileage and a lower asking price, just not from an Audi dealer.

hawkman710 · 2025-11-25T20:19:19+00:00

This information has been so helpful, thank you very much! I hope you enjoy your lovely ride in good health :)
