Help me help my 2.4L Friend w/ Eibach Pro-kit

Hello,

Sorry for intruding in the big boys locker room lol im just a 2.2L snub (is that even a word?)

Anyway my friend has the SS N/A and he wants to know if the Eibach Pro-kit does give it any drop? I would figure no more than 0.5" in front or back.

But more importantly, even if they are the same height, can someone provide me with the spring rates for the stock and Eibach Pro-kit please?

Thanks

Yeahs thats what i got but i dont got the stock skirt kit he has. We've had 5 snowstorms of 30cm (~12") so far and ten trillion potholes (like u americans have NO IDEA how **** our roads are in Montreal, even compared to other provinces) so hes taking it into account.

Thanks so far.

Any one know the exact drop and/or spring rates?

drop is about 2 inches for the 2.4 ss i believe

sorry thats for the sportlines, not the pro...you'll see somewhere between an inch and 1.5" for the 2.4 with a pro kit...i think. haha. searches have not yielded good results.

i think the front stays the same height and the back gets dropped 0.5 inches if i remember right. the real improvment is in the progressive spring rates, sometimes dropping too low isnt the best for handling.

I think thats the SS/SC drops. the 2.4 will be more.
