I plan on driving the car for a few miles to settle the springs and then get an aggressive street/track alignment. Already the car has more negative camber but not a huge amount. I'll post pics after alignment and a wash!
The car looks great! Thanks for all the pics and info. I installed the Porsche SSK on a C4S and it was very notchy going into first. Just had the same done to the TT and the first gear notchiness is non-existent - the SSK is a great improvement.

It looks great eclou! The drop is just where it needs to be. As meaker said it should be this way from the factory. And from what I have read from everyone who has installed the TECHART's that they are much better than the factory as far as ride quality. I have my set ready to be placed on order as soon as I hear that my Turbo is on its way to the docks.

Thanks for the pictures!
