Message	I hardly think what you've described is overboard. Overboard is a $19000 full race suspension. Overboard is seam-welding the chassis and a 12 point roll cage. With the upgrades you've described you will be able to adjust your alignment to more sportier specs, and you will also take a lot of slack out of your old suspension. You will notice a ride penalty, the tension rods and front upper arms eliminate some big squishy bushings, so will notice more harshness. But I don't think you will find it's unreasonable. As a side note, one of the biggest upgrades you can make to your car for handling is simply the tires. Run some quality high performance tires (Kumho MX, BFG KD, Bridgestone S03, Michelin PS2, etc) you will be much better equiped for a autocross or trackday. Also, I hope by SLP you mean SPL, as in [ www.splparts.com ] If not, buy from SPL Parts instead.
