i have RAS as well im lowered on eibachs, got a invidia exhaust, no issues. it does make the car turn smoother around tight corners especially at fast speeds.

No problems here.. I've driven both cars with and w/o.. And with RAS, the car hugs the curve like NOTHING.. I mean even a simple lane change... You can definitely feel the difference.. Night and day.

Driving on a curvy road with ras is silky smooth with RAS. Not sure why, but a G driver sitting on the passenger can "feel" the difference?

The video looks like be like a fair comparison. I mean, just watch it.

I have RAS too and as mentioned before the difference is night and day. I have had on without and now one with and it handles so much better, although i have to get my RAS actuator replaced (maybe because i put some 29.5 10x15 drag tires on my rear for a day) but o well it's under warranty. BUT IF it wasn't would cost 3500 before labor!!!!

Definitely looks exagerated in that video. I feel like its not necessary for the driving most of us do. Still a cool feature though.

When you start up your car and the dash lights come on, you should be able to see a big "RAS" light.
