I would have to disagree with the BB springs being a "flavor of the week mod" as you so seem to describe them as. As Krom pointed out and Barry has pointed out in his previous posts, the thing about the BB springs is that they are not going to make you "faster" persay but they have a very strong chance of making your car better off overall. To me this is more like an evolution then a FTW mod. Like Barry I think my car might have been a hair slower with the BB springs on the fast lap, but I can say with 100% confidence that I enjoyed driving it a whole lot more and it made the car better and as a result it made me better.
For people looking to make the car better BB's are the only way to go, for people looking to go fast they are likely not required.
