Well I'm glad it's working out for you. I don't really want you want to have a quicker response and more stable platform then using the shocks instead of springs gives you control because a spring will return the energy it receives from the bump, a shock converts it to heat/time. If you are pulling Gs then you need to hold the chassis to transfer the weight to the loaded tire and unload the inside tire.to mess with my intercooler though. Hopefully @DAMotorsports have there solution out in time (Doing an event October) theirs is supposed to work with the AVO perfectly.

None, it's heavier. I actually got it for downforce purposes when going 150+ mph

(I actually already had it on Dyno day).

Sorry if this posts has mistakes, I'm on the phone!
