Thumbs up Harold @ HP Autowerks

Excellent service from HP Autowerks. They did Swift Spring conversion(400/800) on my KW Clubsport. Ride is so much better with Swift springs. Much smooth all around yet car handles amazing. I mean AMAZING. And I got to see this Harolds new toy that he picked up night before. Again, AMAZING.


Thanks for the excellent service Harold & HPA!

Doesn't KW Clubsport already use similar rate linear springs? I'm having a hard time seeing how Swift springs can make THAT much difference. I mean if you're running V1,2,3 with progressive springs I can definately see the difference.

Anyways, +1 on Harold being an awesome vendor!!

I asked Harold the same question. This is what he told me,

"It's higher quality Swift springs.

Not all springs are created equal, some springs are not as linear as you may think and may even have different rates throughout their travel.

The thrust sheets help the bearing dampen some of the vibration and noise, but also allow the springs to unwind and rotate throughout their travel to prevent any spikes in rates."
