Bilstein question
 

Will Bilstein inserts fit into Boge housings on an 85 Carrera? Also, are turbo tie rods the way to go? Thanks.

Yes to both.

Yes, if you get the correct part number. There is a specific insert for the Boge strut. Plus, since your car is a 1985, you need to know your date of manufacture. There was a mid-year change in 1985.

Street: If you are replacing tie rods anyhow, it's a worthwhile upgrade. They're more durable. If your tie rods are ok, you probably won't notice much difference.

Track: Yes

For Street and some A/X or D.E., go with Heavy Duty's front and Sport Rears.
