having KWV2's, Hotchkiss sways and GSM fan/torque mod done.
All I can say is
HOLY S__T!!!
Car dropped about 1" all the way around (maintained rake).
Car now handles like a slot car (albeit a heavy one). No floating or swaying, great stance. Damping is set to factory KW spec and works great.
Just drove 55 miles on the Long Island Expressway and through some 45 mph gusts and heavy rain. Some great twisties coming home as well. Purposely did the suspension steering test on the street where the speed shop was (hard turn all the way over to the right and back over to the left) four or five times at 25mph.
NADA Like it wasn't even happening!
Best investment I've made since the flashpaq.
Will post some pics when it stops pouring.
THanks to mjr5150 (Mike) for introducing me to Speedway performance out on Long Island. They did a great install job.
Chas

Hey Chas,
Glad to hear it all wen't well . Been wondering how you made out . Been inside working on catch up jobs all day(hanging pictures , tighten this fix that ,etc) due to the crappy weather . Guess you can't test out the GSM Traction control mod in this rain ?? I too have had some memorable launches leaving his shop onto that side street . Hopefully I'll see the improvement's at E-town on October 7th. So the Black Beauty has a lower stance ? Must look great and feel nice . Time to go looking for clankety kill man and his woman again . Take care and post results when you can really play in the good weather , Mike .

Dom and Brian and Woody--good people. Stance looks great. Rides like a true racer. A little scrape when I go into my driveway, but I'll be careful.
I'll be back out there in about three weeks just before ETown for a tighten up.
I'll let you know when I come out It will be a Saturday morning probably 10/1.
I added the same mods two months ago and still grinning ear to ear. KW2s / Hotchkis sways bars really keep the car on the road and with no leaning on the corners.
The GSM torque/fan mod enables the car to launch more reliably without the dreaded 1-2 shift hesitation.
