how hard is it to install koni sports spring on my stock SVT struts, i know people said i will regret it on the long run, but that will be a pretex to get the koni struts later.

how much drop they do to a svt cause they say 1.57 on a non-svt so im not so sure.

drop should still be the same. why go thru the trouble of pulling the suspension to install springs and then repull it again to do the koni struts. if your doing it yourself and not paying labor, go ahead. why not just save up for the koni kit. buy it all at once and install it all at once

cause i got a great deal that i cant resist for the spring used and i can do it with a friend if its not too hard. since there no way i can buy the strut for now and that if i get the kit later i will end up paying more its why i want to jump on the deal.

in the worst case i will put them aside and wait to get the strut and install them togeter

I would put them aside. Why pull everything more than once? And, if you get the struts ahead putting the springs in, you can assemble them at your leisure, and then install them whenever you want.
