Just finished two days on the track at Willow Springs with the adjustable control arms with the West Coast Racing group.
My initial impression on the street was a huge improvement, but it far greater on the track. The twitchy rear end is gone. You can put the power down and the rear end bites like a pit bull.
This has also enhanced the other mods of the spring changes. I previously had the shorter Evosport springs which didn't improve the track time and caused the car to handle like a 500 hp go kart. Shorter springs limit the shock travel and causes the car to hit the bump stops. So I changed the springs, stiffer in front and softer in the rear raising the ride height to stock setting.
The best mod you can make is the adjustable control arms.
