    H-sport swaybars

    I would appreciate hearing from those who have installed these on an RS6. I think the car could benefit from this upgrade based on what I've seen after changing the swaybars on another car.
    Is there an issue with this mod voiding the base or extended warranty?
    Would they hasten the demise of the DRC?

    I believe the consensus from all that own them is that they were a worthwhile investment. I don't think there is any problem with warranty nor DRC issues.

    Here's the URL:

    They have links on their site for contacting them.
    Dealer link only shows US dealers.

    Buy them

    I got mine at KDM Tuning in Mountainside NJ. It was about $500 w/ install. It tightens the whole car up and shouldn't void any warranties since it's a wear and tear item.

    John.


    Thanks Ben

    Finally received my Hotchkis sway bars and will install them after
    the local Audi dealer replace the whole DRC system again. It sucks that this will be the second DRC system (4 shocks and valve) during the last 10 months. But can't wait to try out the beast with new DRC and sway bars...
