There's definetly a change in the cars launch attitude. The patch left behind on street tires is much deeper than before and the feeling that the back end is squating is gone. I used the most aggresive setting on the LCA angle as well. Not going to have much chance to enjoy it though. Smoked half the flat hydraulic lifters after a long road trip. I'll need to rebuild before I can get to the track and try them.

Re: Spohn LCA relocation mounts installed

why the relocation brackets with the stock arms?
if anything, the arm is flexing and not allowing you to use the brackets to the full potential.

Re: Spohn LCA relocation mounts installed

i put these on my car and no joke, the next time i ran it at the track it pulled the front tires about 5inches off the ground. that was the only thing i changed so i would say they work quite well
