Will this setup be ok if i put the 50mm springs on the koni's or would it be better to have the eibach or bilstein dampers?

I recently drove a 2lt with koni yellow and eibach springs and was a really nice combination.

Konis need to be revalved with Eibach springs cos they are too hard.
I would try bilstein sprint with eibachs or H&R springs

i got the really low eibachs on my 2ltr i didnt notice much diff with them and the std koni springs (think they are called terra)

if you want a nice drop go for the full koni set up but if you not bothered about ride eigh go for eibach (30mm)

Koni springs are Vogtland in reality, slightly softer than Eibachs.
The Best shocks for Konis are the bilstein sprint. I've got Konis with eibach and the ride is hard as a rock, handling is good on good tarmac but very bumpy and harsh on "medium" tarmac, you really need to revalve the shocks
