I have the M-9602-M, no regrets. cars still a great comfortable ride and much more firm/flat in corners on sport/track.

Thanks for the quick reply! Duh! Now I see below in your signature "MagneRide Handling Pack". Well, this is the way I will go. The 20mm is not bad. Better in my opinion than 1" or greater. Did you do the installation? The bars I could handle, but the springs I don't have some of the tools. I see you also changed oil to a higher viscosity. Oil separator. Air filter. Racing the Bullitt?

Thanks Schwerin! I am also still leaning towards the M-9602-M package. I have been very impressed by the ride in the Magneride-equipped Bullitt. Great daily drivability and fantastic absorbtion of road imperfections.

The one disconcerting thing about the ride is that it still feels somewhat disconnected and "floaty" in corners when taken at speed with seemingly unpredictable up and down and side to side motions. Most times, the car "snaps-back" into the desired driving line but it is still a little disconcerting.

If what I am talking about makes sense, does the M-9602-M package address this, even partially? I guess the exective summary is I am wondering if the package tightens up/sharpens the handling while cornering. Again, thanks!

I did the bars and software flash myself, a local shop did the Springs.

I'm the type that updates the small stuff first usually. Get rid of the weak points and set up for preventative maintenance. Then add power. I'm thinking of rotors/pads next. Eventually, I plan to get back into autocross, but not done it for maybe 10 years.

It fixes it a bit, but it still feels like the rear is "wiggling" some. I'm hoping the Steeda braces will help that once I get time to put them on.

Thanks and I like your description of the issue as a "wiggle." Have fun with autocross, it's such a great way to work on car control skills and really see how the car can perform while doing it in a relatively low-risk way.
