Message	It was horrible. Shocks were leaking and springs were sagging. It was almost undrivable. The few simple things I have done already completely changed the vehicle dynamics. Based on your profile you are making in the neighborhood of 400+HP. Think of the current model cars that make that and how their suspension is. It will make you give serious thought to that first. Power is nothing without control. Simple brake upgrades will make a world of difference too. I REALLY need to do mine, it is the weak point right now. Do a search and you will see some great recommendations.
