[QUOTE="cgaulzetti, post: 15807276, member: 190019"] I need to resize the pictures but I picked the thing up today from JBA speedshop. I could not be more impressed. This is a totally different car than the one I dropped off. Everything looks, feels, and sounds 100x more solid. There is no more body lean around corners,the wheel hop is all but eliminated under hard acceleration and the car even feels smoother over chip and seal roads, pot holes and speed bumps. The car honestly feels like a well sorted AMG tuned for the track or an M5 but with afar better engine. I don't know how some upper and lower control arms, coil-overs and relocation brackets could tighten things so far up and basically transform this thing from an overpowered floaty fun boat into a dialed 500hp sports car that feels ready to go race 911s and GT350r's. Amazing work by the guys at JBA and excellent and awesome advice from Sam Strano. I don't even have the Watts link yet- but the new giant heat exchanger goes in on tuesday and I think I'm getting an MGW shifter too and the FRPP Cai and tune I'll get to when Ford Racing gets the tuner to me. I'll take the car to the mountains this weekend and see about any adjustments- but man this thing is transformed. I guess the stock suspension really was that bad! [/QUOTE]
