Hi

Guys will lowering a car with magneride have any negative impact on the system.

Thinking there leveling sensors, maps etc. Is a remapping of some sort required? Or it's OK to put Ford Performance springs on for the GT350 and don't look back? This is for the 2018 GT.

Thinking of these

I would hold out for Ford Performance to release lowering springs specifically for the 2018 GT with MagneRide.

Steeda will have specific springs for the Magneride available for this application.

They should be available in about 6 Weeks.

Yes I will most likely do that. Hope there will be some more information by the time I get the car. The plan would be the to let the dealer install before I pick up the car.

If the spring fits and it lowers it the same amountt as others I dont see how it can effect anything else.

Sure have buddy, but would need some more info regarding any potential impact on the system. FP does not list the 2018 GT as compatible only the GT350/GT350 are listed. Thinking those cars most certainly have a different mag-ride mapping
I’ve currently got my eyes on a set of Ford Performance springs in preparation for my 18s delivery. However, will be interesting to see what Steeda (and others) have in store, and may change my mind based on what I see

Was thinking about the FP springs. Now thinking about the Eibach springs. Like the look of the drop. Don’t see why this or the FP springs shouldn’t work on the 18s.

Still keen to hear what BMR and Steeda both have in store though
