Anybody has a KW H.A.S. Spring kit in a M6 with Competition Pack?

Does anybody have a KW H.A.S. Spring kit installed in a M6 with Competition Pack?

KW never tested it on a M6 with Competition Pack so they can't guarantee it will work.

Thanks

I wouldn't see what the difference would be suspension wise from CP to a non CP.
The strut would have to have a complete different diameter, the strut would have to mount different etc for it not to work.
Before H&R had springs available they gave out the same feed back on M cars. I installed 550/650 springs into M5/M6 and it fit perfect.
Later once the KW and Dinan released theirs, I ended up using the correct spec kit. But it worked regardless.

Thanks for your input.

I thought that the Spring Kit could have a different behavior on the Competition Pack vs the non Competition Pack because of the differences on the suspension.

And since KW didn't guarantee if it would fit or not, I wouldn't like to risk...

Thanks.
That was the answer I was needing.
Did you lower it much below what was already with the competition pack?
Do you have pics of the car?

I ended up finding your car on the EAS blog.


KW replied for the first time and said that they never tested it, but didn't see any reason why it wouldn't work, and then they replied again to my original message saying that it wouldn't work…

I sent a message to EAS, maybe they can help me...
