yeah still got understeer at certain corners, but it was less than before(was running MDM)...plus the outside of my tires are smooth, so that could be contributing to it.

all he did was plug in the unit to the cig. for power, and a sensor on the roof. We didnt connect to the ECU.

what he said...plus its a habit to put it in 2nd gear. (my old racecar didnt have a handbrake)

A full second from the data is nothing to sneeze at.. although In my head I was expecting more.
Of course... you may go back out next time and really have that sink in and gain more..
. so much for keeping that white car stock eh? LOL

haha, its an addiction...expensive one...its a good thing my bank account stops me from going crazy.
My best lap time didnt have the best sector times yesterday, and i left 1 sec on the table. But my next track outing i'll have R tires and will drive with electronics off.

Would you happen to have a damper curve (force vs speed) of the KW V3's?

Thanks for posting real data!

does it really feels that good? does anyone know what is the least lowering to get a good ground clearance, though sporty enough to feel the effect while cornering..?

thanks in advance.

Dont go to low, or you will just break your wheels/suspension in the first pothole. The front spoiler is already very low as it is ! I got KW's DDC on mine, and decided to keep it at the original height. So stock look, but total adjustability.
