Jack -changing out the sway bar and PHB will help in the corners your describing with on ramps and such and I know exactly what your talking about..... what do you have "upgraded" right now? Sounds to me that a few suspension upgrades as opposed to a major suspension upgrade is a better and cheaper way to go but to each his own! Oh and yes I detail on the side and I don't charge enough....LOL I will PM you soon about that! later J

J, I think maybe your cheaper way would be the way to go. I don't plan on road racing or anything like that. Just want a more balanced handling car.

I followed your recommendation for getting the rubber off my rear quarter panels and they're clean now. The bug and tar remover worked great. I'm waiting for your PM. I'm glad to hear you don't charge enough because I don't pay enough.

Thanks to all who have responded.

This is the case of you get what you pay for.......I would get the Saleen or Techno one.....The Techno one is designed by the same guy which used to work at Saleen.....

Very interesting MOD......worth it!

That's more like what I'd want to pay but it certainly doesn't look as strong as the Steeda or Saleen. That saddle with the U-bolts for over the axle looks pretty skimpy. I haven't heard of the Techno one. I'll have to look it up.

Jack I will detail your car and it requires about 8-12 hrs of my time and I am the only one that touches the car (don't trust any help) and I don't have much time this year to do it. Come spring we can talk and I can get her done unless your garage is heated to at least 60 degrees then we can talk about getting it done before Thanksgiving PM me if interested! The price is cheaper than any detail shop I know of and they pay kids to do the work...... I have a great story on that one....anyway to get back on track I think it was a wise choice for you to just opt against getting the watts link suspension........ JMO
