Suspension mods - handling vs ride If you do the "standard" tower brace, sway bars, trailing arms, toe rods, etc... is there a noticable improvment in handling? is there a noticable change in ride (assuming same springs and not lowering anything etc...)
whats your suspension set up and how do you like it?

Strut tower brace is really just for looks. The trailing arms, and toe rods help the car at the track. The main things on the G8 that need upgraded in the suspension are the subframe bushings, differential bushings, and radius rod bushings. Pedders suspension FTW!!!
I have the Pedders Street 2 suspension + sway bars. The ride is still comfortable like stock but the handling is way better. The car feels like it is glued to the road and has no body roll. Its an expensive setup but worth every penny.
