I'm guessing he means Spohn....but anyways I have the spherical rod ended adjustible chromoly ones. And they kick ***! huge difference with the launch (for all you drag racers) and a even larger difference with handling. Since your car is a street car maybe you shouldnt use the full spherical rod ones...maybe the half/half one.

I have the Spohn LCAs (adjustable/tubular). I like the poly ended ones. Great for everyday driving and dont make as much noise as the spherical ones and they last longer. But if your into drag or autocross i prefer the sperical rod ended version cuz there is no binding when turning and they will launch your car better then the poly ended ones. I cant really give any feedback on the spherical/poly ended ones cuz those are the only ones i never had in my car.

oh..and the LCA relocation brakets. when my LCA geometry was screwed i put those brackets in and i noticed a huge traction gain. great piece of hardware.

yeah i meant spohn, miss spelt it, sry bout the confusion, i am looking at the ones that are adjustable from the middle, they are like $145 i think. i have slp lcas and they suck, i still have wheel hop and the car squads under full trottle all the way threw 1st. jumping up and down. so i figured some differnet lca's and relocation brakets would help, does anybody have a spohn torque arm, some body told me that these would also be helpful, are they worth the moeny ( in my application)
