Hey Sin, do you have any specific recommendations regarding how to go softer? Bilsteins? Monroes? KYB? Those are the only aftermarkets I know of. Or do you feel the brand new OE shock/strut route (Boge?) is the way to go? There has also been discussion on the board about springs, but as far as I know everything out there is stiffer than OE and won't do anything for a more comfortable ride. Am I correct? I've got a turbo, and I've always wondered if the GLT springs were softer and if they are interchangeable with my car. Does anyone out there know.

I confess that I have to agree with the original poster: the 850 ride is HARD!
