[QUOTE="RichV, post: 1083561, member: 17007"] I really don't want to sound like a douche, but why even go there on a street car? Why not just get some good control arms, bushings, maybe upgrade to coilovers, get some good tires and bam, you have a handling machine. That said, the PHB was a little bit of a pita to install. Mostly measuring/drilling, and repeating everything so you are as accurate as possible. How different does it feel? I couldn't drift the car the 1st time I drove it with the PHB. I still had a rear swaybar, which I found works best on slow tracks (30-50ish mph turns), faster tracks like the rear sway bar. I tried a PM3L where I had softened up the passenger upper control arm, but I found it just adds stress to the driver upper and prematurely wears it out. With the TA you should be able to remove the uppers and get much better articulation, I'll let you guys know when I upgrade that. I think these kind of upgrades are really geared to the open track and street use is not really practical or necessary. You also gotta remeber my car is extremely stiff with a 6 point cage, halo, downtubes, x-bars, etc. So your car may act different, but on the street there is no way to really drive at the limit to get the use out this stuff.
