which springs

OK - tried to fit sports springs to the vrs last week.
Got the strut out only to find the the springs supllied where the wrong ones.
Took them back only to be told that they did not produce springs for the vrs.
Now I know that Stealth Racing fit Eibach or H+R springs so they have obviously worked out which vw/audi springs fit the struts.
What other VW's use the same struts.
Does any one know which springs I should use.

I think I'm right in saying the vRS shouldn't need new springs? - Other more "basic" models use new springs as a hell of a mod, but the vRS should be fine as is (Unless you go down the route of KW suspension)

You may find that the springs, although lower than standard, aren't as stiff as standard and have a different progression rate as well.
