I am starting to think about handling mods, does anyone know if it’s possible to add Magneride to a non-mag car?

Otherwise, what suspension mods are worthwhile?

I am definitely thinking about the brm cradle lockout 005, and I’ll use the Mustang mostly as a long distance motorway GT with the occasional spirited drive on backroads, so I don’t really want to sacrifice comfort for rigidity.

Mustang GT Manual 2017 - now sold ☹
springs and bilsteins shocks would be better though @V8_MOTOR is very nicely road testing the Tein coilover kit. Its minimum drop is 18mm which might not suit your driving requirements. Personally I'm looking at -10mm springs and Bilsteins b6 shocks when it comes time to upgrade the suspension. Keep the right comfortable but drop it a little to improve looks and handling without kerb hoping. Adding magneride to a car would be very expensive I presume, most of these OEM features are

i've got steeda springs, BMR cradle lock out and BMR sway bars and it's night and day difference in handling, the springs are stiffer but not majorly and the drop is good too not too much about an inch all round.

I'm torn about suspension upgrades.

I've come from nearly 20 years of owning/racing Lotus Elises where the handling is sublime - there is no way on earth a 1800kg mustang is ever going to match.

I've also got a fairly rare 2020 Bullitt in Shadow Black and any major mods will detract from the value. it is however non-magneride.

This weekend I was out in the North Yorkshire Country roads and actually managed a 'spirted drive' and was amazed at times about with hefty use of power how car handled. I would still like to tighten it up a bit more - but really don't want the city / street handling impacting - as Leeds roads are so pot-holed it would striking the stops.
