lowerd koni shocks
lowerd springs cut (i know i know its bad)

other than that the ride is perfect like standard and handles really well

After the last post I thought it might be good to get an idea of just what everyone is running, coilovers, pollybuses etc
So though id start:
My plan
solid adj strut tops
polly bushes throughout
Koni or Kw coilovers
25mm front arb
28mm rear arb
Planing for track days, fast road etc....
ok I know this my plan a nd not my car at the mo, but its the sort of list im looking for!

My setup is:
-KW Front Anti-Sway bar.
-KW coilovers (V1's).
-Neuspeed adjustable rear anti-sway bar.
No complaints at all with this setup, the car is on rails and everyone who rides in the car comments on the surprising ride comfort.

kings springs - extra superlows (cut 1 or 2 coils)
Passat 1.8T K04 | Audi A3 1.8T | Bora 4Motion
Mines moderate I guess but it does the trick for me anyway:
-KW V2s
-New strut top mounts
-Neuspeed Front Strut brace
-Rear strut brace
Also looking at picking up a rear sway bar as whoever I have talked to I have heard that the rear sway bar is one of the best suspension/handling mods you can do.
