Although I can start an argument about how not all coils improve performance, I just hope you guys realize that added rebound in the struts is what adds performance, not springs or the drop itself.

Brace yourself for this answer... yes and no.

While a drop can be beneficial to handling by helping eliminate a bit of sway, your stock struts won't be working as efficiently and won't last as long, and you've also changed the center of balance of your car which would be fine if you don't plan on turning both directions.

Get springs for looks... If you want performance, get sway bars and struts (and of course, tires)

I agree with the MREV2 and sway bars, but get some tie bars too.

Since you have an 07, if you have a manual tranny, you have a revup. If you have an auto, you don't have revup.

As for the tie bars, etc... gtspec.com
