Default Prodrive or Eibach springs

Is there any real difference between the two kits ie dealer prodrive kit which i believe includes new bump stops or the eibach branded springs. i.e do they both lower the car by the same amount and does one give a harder feel than the other.

Eibach make the Prodrive spring, but under the manufacturing agreement between the two companies, Eibach are not allowed to market the same specification product as the Prodrive item. They are different and yes, the Prodrive springs are regarded as better. How much better is down to individual opinion, but it is generally agreed they are noticeably better. Personally I'd go with Eibachs, but with the money saved fit the Whiteline rear ARB and solid links. You could get the Powerstation Stage2 package for £720+vat which adds the front bar, ALK and includes a good geo set-up.
