    EOI Superpro Supaloy control arms for Polo

    Hi all,

    have been in contact with Superpro regarding some of their Supaloy control arms for the Polo. They said they would be happy to if they got the interest hence this thread

    They currently make them for the MK5 & MK6 Golf and with great success.

    Here is a youtube vid to look at plus a thread on them from the MK5 section.

    Sounds like a group buy is needed to kick start bringing these to market?

    I've got the supaloy control arms on my Octavia (think Golf GTI)
    They resolved the axle tramp (during hard launches) problem
    They have also improved straight line stability

    They have an adjustable ball joint, you can get over 1 degree of negative camber which is great bonus for a fast road setup

    Spot on mate. And thanks for the feedback! These seems to get excellent and similar reviews no matter what vehicle they are added to.

    What are the main benefits of this

    weight maybe a few kgs in it
    reduce control arm movement at the subframe, but isn't this mostly from the control arm bushes in use?
    Martin points out the adjustable ball joint so they allow a small degree of camber (compared to adjustable strut tops) to be dialled in

    Anything else?

    (just trying to justify this vs just doing the LCA bushes)
    08 9n3 Polo GTI
    Mods: heaps

    Pretty spot on mate.

    Ok so I have sent the initial numbers to Superpro and they are considering putting these into production. Will keep you updated.

    Cheers.
