909C63...you from Chino Hills and do you have a Black car?

James@ACGSD · 11-01-2009, 11:45 PM

All really depends on where in So cali you are.

We can obviously help you if you are in San Diego, or if you dont mind the drive down here.
We can of course also flash your C63 with a tune while you wait for your suspension

also just another fyi, Bilstein, and H&R are both backordered on the coilovers, and KW's will be ready to ship within a week or so.

If you want to just do springs we have both the H&R and eibachs in stock.

Let me know if we can help

I'm in the same boat for lowering my car and in los angeles. Trying to decide which coilovers are for me, got it down to Bilstein versus H&R. KWs are to pricey and to many settings for what I will ever need to use. I've never tracked my car and can see myself doing it maybe once or twice in the future.

Anyone got an opinion on H&R versus Bilstein?

What's the price for coilover install James and do you do the alignment for that as well? PM me, thanks.

Eurorev in Inglewood installed my KWV3 coils. Price and install is one of
cheapest in LA.

I'm thinking just springs. I just want it to look cleaner. It's my cruising car and I wouldn't mind doing a tune on it. What am I looking at for a tune and what are my gains? I have a fast C6 Z06 so I wouldn't mind makin this faster. What am I lookin at for springs? Benefits of running the coilover vs springs? Thanks man.

A coilover system will be completely adjustable and you can customize it based on your preference in ride height, quality, stiffness, etc. The springs just lower the car. However, for the price of the KW coilovers you can get the H&R springs + a tune while you're there. If I were you, I'd go for the springs and a tune.

i put the H&R coilovers on mine and it rides better than factory settings .

Kleemann tune is $1495, gains are roughly 40-50 whp,

RENNtech tune is $3495, gains are roughly 50-60 whp

Spring install is $225, coilover install is $325.

Give us a call to discuss this further.
