Night 'n Day. No joke. I've had the STB, and SFC's for a while, and I'll be installing the LCA's, Reloc. brackets, and PHR this Saturday.

You wont beleive the difference in traction, body stiffness, and handling. My problems was that I added headers, exhaust, and tuning at the same time so I just gained more H.P. and lost more traction. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Chock up annother vote for night and day. I have had G2 LCA's, Relo brackets, and Adj PHR for a while now. STB and SFC's are getting installed with Shocks and springs as we speak.
