it is rather amazing to see how many products are out there though...I remember when I was looking for my exhaust, back in 2004. I think there was like 6-8 different systems out there that people were using, and had feedback on. I was amazed to see the number of systems that are out now...

Just found one today, by Greddy, which is "tuned" specifically for those 8's that have aftermarket turbo systems. The market just keeps expanding.

Same goes for brake kits, sway bars, coilovers, etc.

When speed first was doing these, the issue of brakes came up. At that time, there weren't enough products out there to warrant a thread of their own...but now may be the time, as there are a lot of products out now.

Shouldn't the springs/swaybar info be located in the Wheels, Tires, Brakes & Suspension for ease of location?

This thread is stickied and woefully out of date. I found it and went right to the shock link and that thing is almost pointless. Created in 2006 and never updated and all it does is link to vendors whose pages 404. No updates at all or even any reviews.

Here's a thread that at least has some good info on the 3 of the more common brands, even though it's also outdated and 4 years old.
