KONI Shock absorbers
pgapromex6969
Rating 5.0
  • Body bounce:

So first thing I ordered was a set of Koni sport shocks and struts. These were on sale for BF at $612 at Koni online store. When I drove the car home after it was unloaded I was glad I already had the shocks and struts as the steering was super light and twitchy, car did not know where it was going. After install the car was transformed, the Konis tightened up the steering and feel, car stays flat in the curves and feels more like a Porsche.

Pros: tightened steering, better feel
Cons: super light, twitchy steering
