Default Lowering?

After the install of the E-Force S/C it dropped the front end about 1/2 in. I would like to lower the rear just a tad. I plan to just do this on the stock bolts. Can someone tell me how to do this? If you have any pictures that would be great.

OH if it matters its a 2011 GS, A6, F55

you can raise the front or lower the rear. very simple to do, its simmple as raising the load off the spring at that corner and turning the adjuster screw. the rear will only lower about 3/4 to 1 inch on the stock bolts. good for you on getting the eforce,,,, i need some pics and hear about the reults if it was worth the investment. pm me

i'm surprised how heavy that system is to lower the car THAT much.

I am happy with it. The only - I can say is that the rotors have a slight noise at an idle. It sort of sounds like a loose lifter. It is very slight but I am a pain in the a$$ . It would not stop me from buying again. It drives just like stock until you put the hammer down.
