Reviving a very old thread here.
I wanted to find out how many guys did the Bilstein upgrade? I know that M. Schneider did and I've talked to him several times to get his feedback. Not that I don't trust his input, but I'm looking for other reviews if any exist. So if you did the Bilstein upgrade, please let me know your thoughts on improvements etc.
I might have the $$$ to do something soon and I intend to keep the 05OBXT as long as it runs. I have some suspension bushings that need to be changed so it might be a good time to do everything. I've been sitting on the necessary top hats etc for a while now.
Needless to say, I want the holy grail - improved handling, no significant increase in NVH, and reliability. The Bilsteins sound like the way to go (as opposed to MR coilovers). And yes, I've done all the other stuff already - bigger rear sway and AVO endlinks and max performance tires.
