It makes a difference on off and on ramps as mentioned on this forum before it deffinetly helps decrease body roll. They make a difference and they are worth the money.

Hey guys,

We have done extensive testing for Hotchkiss on the RS6 and they are deffinetly worth the money.

(You all should know by now that I am brutally honest when it comes to the products we sell and if we don't have it in our car, I am not going to sell it to you)

They help with the car's understeer and reduce body roll significantly. While they are some thick bars, STFA for specs on them from my initial post, they are hollow core and do give slightly. There are 2 setting, hard and soft, we have ours set to soft and believe that it is the correct setting for street applications.

Andy P, the owner who's car Randy Probst drove now has them installed on soft and I am sure he will post his impressions on them soon.

As far as downsides go, we are always inspecting the parts we put on our car and have not seen any indications of any possible problems.

I am currently taking orders for arrival approx. 2-3 weeks after order has been placed.

$449 plus shipping determined by zip code.

If you would like to get on the order list, email me and we can go from there.

I had to remove the mount for mine when I changed my oil, but did not disconnect if from the mount at the very end, just the mount at the underbody.

How much of a job is it to install these???

Install time for these bars is 2-3 hours.

Link to Stoney's FAQ (http://www.netwiz.net/~jds/files/a6_links.html#suspension)

I did them on my S6 by myself, not a big job (it helps to have a lift and air tools.)

Install on S6 (http://www.h-sport.com/bin/instructions/22802.pdf)

BTW: the H-sport bars transformed my S6 to what it should have been from the factory, I highly recommend them.
