There are about 3 setups out there now as well as probably 5 guys on here that have tried it and run it now. It settles the car down and takes some of the aggression out of the initial turn in.

Thanks I thought that this may have been the case I think I will give it a shot to see what it feels like on our track. Outs is open and fast so it may be okay

Thanks

+1000!! Please post pics

Can you remove the topdeck so we can get a good look at the part, that is if it's already installed on the car.

Thanks,
Steve

Ive been using 2 on the front and 1.5 on the front rear. really smooths out the steering. It has been the best change ive made to the car so far.
