Hey guys thanks for the positive comments, I couldnt be more pleased with the car.
I see a lot of questions on the suspension so here is the low down:
FRPP 1.5" drop springs
FRPP Adjustable dampers
Steeda adjustable front sway bar
Maximum Motorsports caster/camber plate
Steeda Bump steer kit
Reahagen Racing Brake ducts
Steeda adjustable panhard bar
Reahagen Racing Chrome Moly rear lower control arms
Motol RBF 600 Brake fluid
This car is being prepped for NASA TT-A
caster camber kit is front only. its a solid rear axle so caber is fixed.
on track I run 3 degrees of negative camber but 3 on the street is beyond crazy, car would drive like hell and eat tires.

How's the ride quality with the dropped suspension?
What specific FRPP dampners are you using?
Is Livernois able to tune the 5.0?
Thanks, I live local and have an ETA of 5/22. I'm planning to have an x-pipe fabbed up and springs installed ASAP. I would like to get Livernois involved at some point...

I'll be driving the KB 5.0, hopefully with SVTPP or RTR wheels. Needless to say, his car is going to stick out quite a bit.

Hey Shaun! PM me with what time. If its ok I would like to see it in person! I might not be able to answer the PM as all I have is my crackberry and its sporadically working.
Its weird thinking North to dearborn? Heck, I drove 240 miles south to Utica! You don't have the KB yet right? Just the Speed6 still, right?

Oh I'll look the car over real good.
Can't hide heads and a cam or a poweradder.
I'm not taking anybodies word on this.
