I had my 86' 505 Turbo lowered by cutting the springs
& then rebuilt the shocks with some thicker oil for a
more firmer ride, it handled fine as I remember &
did'nt bounce like alot of cars with cut springs do
(possibly because of the hefty Peugeot springs! It
sure looked cool, a few of my friends have also done
it on the pre 86' chassis, Peugeot Sport however used
to sell lowering springs for it but I don't have any
idea were you'd get those now.
