Hey guys,
I have the KW V3s installed in my s3 and have never had any problems with them (which is a flipping good job considering the cost lol) but the time has come now that I would like to make them a bit more 'compliant' shall we say. Maybe im getting old...
Anywho, they are currently on the KW default settings for my model of car, and I would just like to make them a bit more comfortable over the bumps. It goes without saying that comfort is very subjective, but my main reason for this post is to ask for some advice on the relationship between rebound and compression, and to make this process that bit speedier / easier, rather than spending a full weekend making small changes and roadtesting.
If I was to screw the compression down a couple of turns say, how much do I then need to adjust the rebound? And do I need to adjust the front differently than the back (obviously I do but how much).
By any chance does any one have this suspension on their s3 and has maybe had to do this in the past and would like to share their settings with me? I will of course also send KW an email to see if they have any advice.
I realise this could be quite a difficult question for anyone to answer and I appreciate any replies.
Thanks as always.
