Suspension Suspension help pleeeeeeeeez.. :-(
Precise data have been ignored ad nauseum, so as you write cristo, why bother. And your first statement is central to this argument and spot on!
The CV joint(s) do not like the new angles they are asked to work in. This is a problem generic to CV joints and has been around since, well, before GrossmeisterB was born. If he wants to re-invent the wheel and go thru the process a few hundred others already have, that is his perogotive. What he will find is that the race type CV joints have already been modified to work with extreme conditions; ie engineered by folks who know and by folks who have xxx miles of racing experience.
Historical data have a way of shaping the future GrossmeisterB. But if you want to see the problem thru just because you want to SEE the problem as a learning exercise, then I applaud your inquisitiveness. The race type CV joints, however, will fix the problem right now - based upon personal experience.

just installed some used hsports today. My car is an 06 33k on the odo 19 mo old.
No vibration yet as I can tell. Springs have yet to settle but other then that no real problems.

Grossmeister, if this is what you thought meb was laughing at you about, he thought you were joking, and he was joking back with you. There is nothing malicious there at all.
Furthermore, no-one is telling you what to do with your car. Meb has offered an account on his experience and has clearly said that unless you modify the CV joints, the only solution is to raise ride height and/or lower neg camber.
Don't act like a petulant kid, no-one has been rude to you
