Anyone regret upgrading a handling pack car with Steeda goodies

[Franky16]

I have a 23 Mach 1 with the handling pack. Thinking about going with the stop the hop kit, dual rates and sway bars for a bit more confidence in the corners and a little better stance. Anyone find that modding the suspension made the car feel a little to track oriented? I don’t track the car it’s just a fun car that I rip canyons with and go to cars and coffee. It is boosted

Yes, I definitely felt the need to improve the capabilities of the suspension. I am also boosted.

Can't speak for DUAL Rates on Magneride but should be a lot to gain there. im non-magneride.

I'm personally running bilsteins + bmr handling springs. (250f /980r) spring rates and I love it.

I did stop the hop kit (ultimate) + sway bars. Everything was added over time when I had cash to spare for mods.

Each part i added made a significant difference. Handles like a real sports car. you wont regret it.

I did the stop the hop goodies and the rear sway bar. I did not find the need to upgrade anything else so far. The sub frame bushings and braces did make a big difference to me and the rest with Magneride just works for me.

I do occasionally roll race the car but no track days at least as of yet haha

You could always look at tires. Are you still on the Cup 2's? If so, how's the wear?

I'd look at the stop the hop kit first, then go sway bars and springs.

2021 PP1 with magnaride. I went all out. Steeda stop the hope ultimate, Nurburgring handling package with caster plates, dual rates, comp sway bars, magnaride controller, other control arms, spherical bearings, bushings, etc. I think I did everything available short of the cradle. I have the VMP Odin kit as well. Also did brake upgrade from steeda. It's amazing. Yes it's a noticeable difference, but the kinda of difference I like, more feel, better control. Flat handling. The suspension & brakes match the go.

wow awesome. Did you run the dual rates without the controller for awhile? If so how were they

cup 2s are long gone. On a fresh set of 4s tires. Your rec is basically what I have in the cart. Question is which springs and which stop the hop kit

They were fine without the controller. It's just another level basically.

I did mostly steeda in the rear including the springs and have NOT regretted it. I did the springs first and it made the magnaride feel a little sharper. The other parts I put on a year later (recently).
