I really need to get my suspension sorted and found this on the Eibach website.

I didnt know they were doing Turbo springs....has anyone fitted these? or is it a typo on the website?

Any thoughts?

(I have emailed them to clarify)

Hmmm.....i hope its not a misprint, but I think it probably is! Axle loads and part numbers are the same as here, which is (meant) for the 2.2l. Keep us posted though!

EDIT: According to christurbo, NA springs wouldn't physically fit on a turbo damper, if you were thinking of going down the NA route it would have to springs and dampers.

Hello Dave

These springs are not suitable for the VX220 turbo.

I have corrected the error on our website - thanks for bringing it to our attention.
