Finally took it over one of the on-ramp yumps that would completely unsettle the stock suspended car in 2nd gear.

The butt didnt fly into the air like it did with the stock shocks and with the B8’s. It Didn’t even break traction, WOT at 6500rpm in 2nd. In the past it would just spin up the tires and then bog as it caught trAction again going 2-3mph slower than it was before it hit the yump. With traction control on the car would just fall on its face on the old setup because it was such a severe loss of traction, now it’s just a flash or two.

I almost hit the limiter because I was so surprised it was still accelerating. And it’s 48 degrees out.

That was my final “was this a dumb expense or not” test and it was not dumb. Yay!

But, caveat, stock ZCP rear springs. Not using the 20% stiffer springs that come with the kit. I would think it would be a bit more skatey over bumps with a stiffer rear spring.
