I had a rough last outing and I had a pretty bad start to the day thanks to traffic. I was down to the last two laps and I finally was able to get within a few tenths of my target. I was a little bit sad when I calculated I still had .5 sec that I could pick up. Next time I am aiming for 45s.
I don't know if the springs made as big of a difference as the sway bar. I do notice the steering got heavier, especially at slower speeds. I am not going to mess around on the springs at this point. I am just going to save up for some front camber and call it a day.

I'm not so sure your rear springs are too stiff Cossie. Mike runs the same Tein coil over set up as me and he has 14K springs on all corners and he reports it is excellent and I know he said some more experienced racers drove his car and said it was set up awesome. I personally went 12K in the rear in 14K in the front instead of the 14K square since I'm not on slicks.

I know, that's why I waited forever to mod this car. I did it years ago to my Miata, it was like chasing the dragon. I was hesitant about doing it, but too late to go back now.
What does $3k buy you, about 1.5 sec quicker per lap. I know I can definitely get more out of a set of slicks
