Is a matter of compromise, reduce unsprung weight vs. raising the CG of the car. No matter how light is your car, if you remove weight from the better place that could be (the lowest) the handling will be worse (and expensive). Don't forget too that Ti is lighter but more prone to breaking, with the lower pillow balls in steel, they bend, but not break.
BTW: The best ones (and confirmed by other people) are the Mugen ones, part no. T0187 (2pc pack).
The same applies for the Ti screw set and other Ti parts, the worst place you can remove weight is at chassis plate level (so, forget too about LiPo batteries and things that can remove weight were you would desire - weight freaks don't apply).

Corse-R: Thanks for the info. All good things for everyone to know and keep in mind before just jumping to conclusions that the Ti part is the better choice.
I think we are very fortunate to have some very knowledgeable and experienced people help us with this project. It will really help us weed out what the "best choices" are for the car.
Thanks everyone! I really appreciate the input, participation and feedback. Keep up the good work!
