    yea, if you have VTR or VTS springs but i think if you get the 1.1/1.4 springs then it'll drop it how much it says.

    1st of all, you bumped a 2 year old thread.

    you could just search around to find your answer, didnt need to bump an old thread.. especially when your post had nothing to do with the thread.. you were asking how low the "clicks" method is..
    
    failure.
