I'm wavering between fitting a Bilstein B14 kit to my TA, or FSDs with the OE springs, as I don't really want to drop the ride height of my car at all. The standard dampers are just - well - crap.
Interestingly, if you view the Koni catalogue, they state the dampers won't fit the TA. Wondering why, I've asked the Koni distributor, and it appears the reason is that there's a brake hose bracket on the TA damper that the others don't have.
Does anyone have a pic of their car with the wheel off (either a TA, or non TA - or ideally both), so I can familiarise myself with the differences. I think a little bracket that clamps around the tube of the damper *could* be fabricated if needs be, and that'll satisfy my need for better damping but non reduced ride height..
