The struts won't fit at all. The area where they bolt to the spindle is too narrow and there is a wider bolt pattern. The springs will work with your stock non-turbo struts, they may make your front sit a *little* lower, and they have a higher springrate than the stock non-turbo springs (not sure of the #'s though, 140 vs 110? Maybe someone knows for sure). Your stock top cap and bearings will work with the springs as well. I really don't think it's worth buying them, unless you are planning on getting new inserts for your stock non-turbo struts anyway and also want a slightly stiffer spring rate. Then, if verything is already apart and you are messing up your alignment anyway, you could throw those springs on. If you want a larger improvement, get 200lb springs from Pelican or Paragon.....

Hope that helps!
