Looks like the car still handles better than stock!! It's good to see that these springs give a boost in performance as well an aesthetic improvement!

I can testify that it is a drastic improvement over the stock spring. I dont track the car at all, unfortunatly. Although I def get on it quite hard on an empty backroad. The changes these springs make are insurmountable by any of the competitors.

I know it has been suggested before, but I've not followed this thread in a long time.

The drop with these springs are very nice. After getting the turbos installed and getting realigned, I think my car sunk further or bottoms out more easily. The front has slightly more negative camber, so I think it lowered the car a tiny bit more. The other drawback with bigger tires up front is that there is less headroom for suspension travel. Overall the handling is sick... I hardly peel out from making sharp turns. Everyday driving has been enhanced.

Basically, half the time when I drove over a speed bump my front lip, sides, and exhaust scrape. My CF sides are cracked! It was cracked a little before, but I didn't know from what (part probably from car lift).

I think the springs and OEM shocks make for a super soft combination. Perhaps aftermarket shocks can help?
