got the bilstien n ebichas in after a long sunday finished at like 12:30 am. Anyway the car dropped about 1.5 all around (estimated). The ride quality is still pretty comfortable not as harsh as i expected but still gives more feedback than factory. Haven't driven much for 2 reasons first beeing i was burnt out when i was done at mins to 1 in the morning and my alignment is shot, going to get it aligned today and do some highway testing :D . Pics comming soon

lol nah soo i got it. yea i could add some text.I test drove it last night after gettin it aligned it's not too harsh but a lot stiffer n gives feedback. I tried cornering hard didn't get any bodyroll brought it up to 100 on the pike felt really sure footed (didn't leave it at 100 for long) all in all i'm pretty happy with it. also found it quicker off the line as well or i could just be me i duno
