Post Koni struts for 87 turbo

I have been reading posts on this forum for months and have learned alot. This is my first post, hoping someone can help me out. I am interested in purchasing a set of Koni struts, if anyone has an extra set available, please let me know.

Actually, Player, there was a great article in Excellence magazine a month or two ago on converting your existing struts to accept Koni inserts. Its not difficult for the home mechanic to do, and once you get a look at those pics to see how nice and 'factory' the job can look you'll be ready to do it. Also, if you cant get that magazine right away <a href="http://www.tech-session.com/Paragon/Tech/944_koni_1414S.htm" target="_blank">Paragon Products -Tech session</a> has instructions and photos on how to do the job. This is who youll probably get the inserts from anyhow -theyre about $160/ea for the fronts. Of course, you might also think about a set of springs. As a reference, I believe the stock turbo springs were 160#. People routinely go with 250# withought complaining of ride quality -even more, i've heard. But i suppose it then depends on how you like to drive <img src="graemlins/burnout.gif" border="0" alt="[burnout]" /> .

Hope that helps.
