034 Motorsport Australia - (MQB) Dynamic+ RCO Control Arms - Volkswagen Golf GTI/R MK7 & Audi A3/S3/TT/TTS/RS3 8V/8S
Transform the handling and front-end precision of your MQB Audi or Volkswagen with the 034Motorsport Dynamic+ RCO (Roll Centre Optimised) Control Arms. Engineered as a direct drop-in upgrade for the factory stamped steel arms, these performance control arms deliver increased caster, enhanced camber adjustability, sharper turn-in, and improved mid-corner stability — all while reducing weight by approximately 1.5 lbs per corner.
Forged from high-strength aluminium and paired with 034’s Density Line rubber bushings, these arms maintain proper alignment under load with reduced deflection compared to OE components. Extensively street- and track-tested across multiple MQB and MQB Evo development vehicles, Dynamic+ RCO Control Arms provide the ideal balance of performance, durability, and comfort for both spirited driving and daily commuting.
