SG1 - thanks for the ideas for the front suspension here. I put this on my regular XTi (battery transverse and forward). Used the 2.0mm roll center shim instead of the 2.5mm. Used 30K dampening instead of 50. I liked the .45 springs on this and didn't have trouble with the outside front dipping too much. Car was very solid after moving battery forward. Seems much better than the stock setup from the kit. Appears it will do well on heavy traction as well as the light traction we have at our track. And it did well on the 180's we had.
