I have tried numerous combinations over the 18 years I have had my car and the present set up is by far the best.
Our old set-up was a matched kit, which is probably why it worked so well, I think the moral of this story, certainly mine, is that you can get a superb set-up on a GT or quattro, but likewise you can make a complete pigs ear of it if you mix-and-match the wrong products... It's an expensive game to play, and can make your car feel totally pants. I know, trust me, I've been there.
