i currently own a 2010 octavia vrs 170 tdi,i would like to no is there any performance mods out that car make it hand better at speed,now i dont really want to lower it as the ride is spot on but ive found some springs on ebay that lower it about 20mm,i was looking for some front 7 rear anti roll bars etc,does anyone no of anything thats available for this,

cheers hoggy

anti roll bars all the way.

not forgetting you have the diesel so more weight over the front axle, and hence slightly more understeer than the TFSI.

my reccomendation would be to get a set of front and rear anti roll bars and mate them to the whiteline anTi lift kit(WALK), and the differnce wil be vast. my car was by no means prone to understeer.

I have eibachs(set to stiff rear, soft front) with the walk and it is great. i was however considering getting a much stiffer rear bar as i prefer to have a little oversteer bias in the handling.

Another fantastic mod is to replace the front lower control arms with the ones from a Mk2 audi TT FWD. these are lighter than the oem vRS ones and allow you to run an extra 0.5 degree negative camber. this means you wil be able to run up to 1.5o negative camber. and as they are also part of the unsprung mass of the car, positive improvements wil be made to the handling due to the weight loss. this mod wil set you back £300
