Hi,
I'm not new to airbags, but don't have experience with strut setups, and am looking for the pros and cons of various options for bagging a Lancer evo ten. Air management will likely be Accuair e-level, so its just the options or strut bags to decide, and here's the short list so far:
a) KSport bolt-in kit (anyone have personal experience with these? any good? quality of build good and ride quality any good?)
b) D2 bolt-in kit (same questions/concerns as above)
c) Universal Air "Aero Sport" bags adapted to the coilovers currently on it
d) Other airbags that can be adapted to coilovers?
e) adapt a universal strut? which brand and type?
f) other options?
Main purchasing criteria are quality of parts and quality of ride/performance. The owner is going to daily it, but wants it to be able to sit on the ground when needed (yes there's going to be some cutting involved). A full bolt-in setup for the struts is preferable, but not if the ride is going to be bad (which is my main concern with brands like Ksport and D2). I can design and fabricate whatever is needed to make parts work, but if there's a simple solution already out there that can be fitted off the shelf, I'm not going to reinvent the wheel.
Any advice/input greatly appreciated. Cheers,
Nick
