My 5700 mile review of mods, and the fun of my MCS.

Today I hit it 5700 miles.
Well I decided I'd let you know how my latest mods have gone and what I think about my car.

The JCW Suspension:
A must have for those looking to keep their warranty. I took the local twisties the other day and noticed a huge difference from the last time I took them. Then I had stock tires, stock everything. Now with the BFG KDW 2s, JCW Suspension and JCW Strut Brace the only thing I want is a little less understeer. It is scary when I reached MY limits several times and only one of which I started to hear the tires chirp. I can definetly feel the understeer though but that can be fixed with a Rear Swaybar.

The JCW Strut Brace:
Not neccesarily a must have but is still pretty cool and adds slightly to the tightness of the car and majorly to the bling factor! It will look sweet with the JCW Kit!

I only have a few things left on my mod list, where do I go from there?
Any Suggestions?

Mikey
