Isn't your shop car running stock sways??

There is a HUGE difference in how to tune suspension setups on front heavy AWD/FWD cars and well balanced RWD cars. Their audi's will push like crazy and need all the help they can get to rotate properly in corners. If you really feel the need to get sway bars, get a matching set unless you really know what you're doing. Our cars are much more like a miata or s2000 than any audi when it comes to suspension balance.

As for springs/coilovers, if you're only looking for about an inch drop, get quality springs. Cheap coilovers can ride much worse than they need to and could make you hate driving your car.
