If you are upgrading, then your dturbo will have a thinner arb aswell

my plan was to put my good axle from a (base model) and get a gti arb and torsion bars to swap onto the base model axle, along with some solid mounts

 

I was going to leave the drums on the back, as I cant see discs being a major improvement, for the time being

 

suspension wise from my research , I am going for some eibach springs and b4s,solid top mount rubbers, omp strut brace and sub frame brace and standard gti-6 rear dampers
