Question

Continued woes with my setup have let look at all options from Koni/Eibach, BlisTein/ Tein, Leda (my preferred but reindeers birthday) now to Avo from PE.

Has anyone got the Avo setup if so what do ya think?

Chris Humpage has - he probably hasn't seen this post. Do a search on his username and drop him an e-mail.

Cheers

Mike Rainbird was setting himself up as an AVO dealer, IIRC. He may be worth contacting if you choose to go ahead with this kit.

We, (Scooby Mania) are AVO dealers already, Guy Humpage had his suspension from us, I will leave it to him to analyse his suspension.

After that stunning introduction from John Gledhill

I'd actually emailed Scott concerning the AVO kit...

I only had the 'Prodrive' geometry done this morning (it only took an hour, despite Micheldiver insisting I arrived at 8am as it could be a long job.) so I can only just now start 'experimenting' with the settings.

There seems to be plenty of range in the damper settings so there should a setting for all seasons.

I have heard nothing but good reports back about this kit.

I will be 'field testing' a DMS competition/road kit on my car over the summer. (£2.5K approx).

I think Guy's observations would be less biased than anything I may have to say about it (AVO kit).

Mike.
