Need to change my previous comments. After skipping laterally halfway across the track over some bumps at 140mph - I decided I needed some more compliance in the suspension. So now I like the normal setting better overall.

This car fricken rocked all weekend!

Now that's quick!! Last year I was timing Spencer Pumpelly in the TRG SLR in the mid 1:50's so that's one fast GT2!

I worked with Spencer the best weekend of my driving "life" .. he helped me in my cup car
I like his style of driving

hmm this is really interesting... anyone out in Socal with this set up yet?? I read most of the thread but it seemed like mostly east coast people with this setup... I would love ride in it to see daily drivability before making the jump.

If ur worried about daily drivability, then i suggest u purchase them asap. Its so weird, kinda feels better then stock on the softest setting and when ur start messing with edc it just comes alive. Its honestly a great setup for street/track.

BTW: This is to evveryone else, I oipted to go with their shorter spring. Jay told me all that needed to be done was the bumpstop needed to be tweaked. He already did that and they have already been shipped. I should have them by saturday. One inch shorter spring and the rate is practically the same. Not enough to tell the diff. I had to go lower.

Fantastic. Now if they could make a sub 2:00 M3 ... that's what I'm talkin' bout.

Does anyone know the range for the drops, front and rear?

Thanks, so how much were you able to lower with the shorter spring?? is it a full inch now?? I dont really need an aggressive drop just a bit lower..

Any update on your new spring? Do you happen to have the part number for the new, shorter spring?
