Thanks, that's one of the best A:B comparisons I've seen between H&R and TechArt
Phil 997 said:Techart did a lot of R&D before deciding what they wanted and giving the manufacturing contract to Eibach... This is info I gathered when I was doing the same research into what springs I wanted
If you have captured specific differences between Eibach and TechArt, please share.
Because this whole Eibach vs. TechArt thing has been debated extensively on multiple forums. Eibach publishes their spring specs, but TechArt doesn't.
Short of someone buying both sets and actually testing them in a jig, those conversations just go around and around.

At the end of the day, it seems that all things being equal, you prefer TechArt over H&R if you were starting from scratch.
You've described a range of differences between the two, but is there one (or two) factors that tip you to TechArt?
Thanks.
Karl.
Hi Karl ,
Theres no real reason I prefer Techart theres nothing at all wrong with my H&R a lot is going to boil down to what drop you want as techarts drop is 10mm less than H&R and Eibach I personally would let that be your deciding factor none of them slam the car up into the arches but if you are running non pasm , pasm or Spasm then that will dictate what you want to do , if you want a milder lower then Techart if you want a slightly more aggresive lower then H&R or Eibach. some have fitted Ruf lowering springs and were also happy with those .
I spent a long time chatting to Techart at last years Porsche fest at Dinslaken Germany so I probably got a sence of confidence in their dedicated Porsche R&D as against the R&D of multi marque suppliers . Having said that Matt has just got the same confidence from CG about Eibach , then brought himself H&R :grin: :grin: ride hight and availibility followed by price should be your factors on what to choose :thumb: good luck and keep us posted :thumb:
