I got the Baseline "street Lauch" UCAs and some CHE LCAs (non adjustable) and they're great...haven't been to the track yet...but they're very quiet and i can still drive it everyday.

The Baseline kits look VERY solid and can handle anything i could ever want to throw at it!

CHE is really appealing to me especially for the money. I've done some searching around on them, and i see nothing but great reviews.

I have team z lowers and relocated uppers and have nothing but good things to say about their track performance. There are however better options for lowers IMO than a completely solid/spherical bushing setup for a street driven car.

I know a few people with several thousand passes on the CHE lowers with no issues at all. There is really nothing you are leaving on the table from a performance standpoint by going them over a solid/spherical lower, but you retain the quietness and lack of NVH of the poly/derlin setup.

Make sure to have a good dremel or air grinder on hand to smooth out the axle side upper control arm mount casting. If the ears aren't smooth on the inside and out, they won't fit right

Dave guy down at DGR will be taking care of the ears for me along with the internal build of the 8.8, one step ahead there lol.
