Eventually I'll post a review.. but.. my aim solo battery died after 1 lap with the springs, so going with the extremely accurate gopro video timer method the fastest lap with stock vs sportlines showed an improvement of approx 1.5 seconds and an average in the sessions of 2-3. I didn't do a ton of data measurement (surface temps, tire temps, etc) since I'm not that much of a detail person...
Alignment and video of a few laps with the springs is here (as well as alignment info for FRSSpdDmn):

Overall balance was changed to understeer/push but IMO that's the alignment I requested on purpose as I didn't want to risk the car 1,100 miles from home on a track not exactly known for being forgiving. Unfamiliar car and a rushed spring install.. seemed like a bit of push would be a good idea

I also left VSC Sport on but besides flashing the light annoyingly every time ABS engaged and/or I used curbing it didn't really engage.
Yes, I was a wuss @ mid ohio

Sebring in Oct (or maybe late September) I'll be able to explore the limits when I'm comfortable
