Me thinks (in order): 2.7 springs (I don't have the 2.9's...), 100CPS stiffer oil, all roll-centers inserts 0.5mm higher (for higher RC), possibly more bump-steer on the spindle... and more wattage, yeah!

Thoughts on the center carbon brace?

Thanks

On high grip we've seen a lot of guys have success with the 2.5-2.8 springs on the front with the 2.6 or 2.7 in the rear. RC we've been keeping around 0, but we're reducing toe to get the car to rotate better. I pretty much always run the carbon center brace, and just shim it up if I want a bit more flex.
