I replaced the struts my 2001 c4 from Oem to bilstein B6. Im finding them to be too harsh around where I live, the roads are a poor quality. They are nice on motorways and good A roads and i’m sure on a track if luckily enough to book a spot. I’m not sure these are exactly the same for the turbos, but happy give a ride in car before I swap out so you can feel it and give a discount to sell them when I swap o it. ive got about 100 miles on them. I will try the b4 I understand these to be oem roelace but with gas vs oil and better slightly performer than stock. If your just interested in buying these b6‘s please let me know £600 - thanks !

 
Hi, I have a C2 cab and I swapped to Koni special active struts on the advice of CG. I'm very pleased with the ride quality and live around some poorly maintained A/B roads too (Surrey/Hampshire). I was advised against the B6's which I run on my 944 as they are a bit firm for my driving preferences (mostly A/B roads with the odd trackday, but as always lots of motorway miles in between locations). B4's are probably a good choice for you, but if you want a different option, think about the Koni's...
 
I have recently fitted my C2 with a set of KW V3 coilovers.
Also finding them a bit stiff for bumpy N Irish A&B roads though still fiddling with the settings.
