For the most part I agree, but I like the TDS wonderbar better, and if you use rod-ends in the rear suspension (instead of poly bushings) it won't bind or squeak.

I this pretty much the set up I got (KYB). I'm not into the 1/4 mile thing. Living in Germany there are many mountain roads with nice curves. This improved the handling of my camaro 100% . The only other thing I would do is replace the steering box.. the stock RS has very little feel to it.. I would upgrade to the IROC or Z28 quick ratio one. I may be spoiled since my daily driving car is a 97 BMW 740 V8, 287hp and it handles like a dream and I cruise all day at 120 MPH and have had sustain speeds of 150mph and the car feels stable. If you did not know, Germany has no speed limits on most of its Autobahns.
