Stiff spring rates and matched strut would have been a better investment than half that stuff.

I've also heard very good things about frame locks.

Maybe someone can speak to them?

korbach selected me about a year ago or so to be photographed for their instruction manual on installing a set of framelocks on an eg chassis. the catch, i had to drive out to san carlos and write up a review. its on here somewhere, gotta search for it.
but basically straight to the point, no bullsh1t, my car felt more stable and understeer is reduced alot. i test drove the car with frame locks on and then off, and then ken benen of benen industries took my car for a spin and he loved it, korbach gave him the blind test to c if he can spot the difference, it was awesome.
i would totally buy if i didnt get it for free and my car is in the eg instructional manual.
