Ok, now that I got this big block in my rs4 mini, it handles like poop. Its great in a strait line, but spins out on just about every turn I make.

Are there any good article or tutorials that help dial in suspension? My car needs some help.

my geuss is that its gunna be REAAAAAAALY hard to get that thing handling. i heard that they are hard to handle from the start. good luck my friend.
 
I have the XXX Main Chassis Setup Guide. It's 66 pages and talks about everything. The guide is easy to understand and doesn't take forever to read. It's more of a quick reference guide than an encyclopedia. I'm glad I bought it.

Also, here's a quick reference chart that may be of some help...

So just look up your condition, and the numbers are what they recommend you change in order of importance.
 
That book is on the top of my list. Just buy using what you gave me so far really helped out a lot. Thanx killer. No chance of you getting all the pages up here, is there? jk

Green = soften, decrease, lower, shorten or use
Red = harden, increase, higher, lengthen or do not use

Number = the order of importance... a #1 means you should do this first before playing the #2.

For the off and on-throttle part, the black square is the one you're looking at it.

Example: If your car is understeering while entering the corner off the throttle... that is the very top line condition. So for the front, the chart says the first thing you should do is soften/decrease the front sway bar. For the rear, it says you should first harden/increase the rear sway bar. See it?
