I'm running Steeda Sport Springs and their Active Dampers front and rear, Steeda camber plates and rear upper shock mounts, lower front brace and IRS braces with stock sway bars on a 2020 Bullitt (PP1)

Car is very comfortable, mostly composed over washboard, quiet, and tracks like a beast. Great balance for my use. I do want to replace the sway bar bushings as they seem to be glued to the bars and preload the bar and suspension.

I have noticed that on rough roads, pot holes, etc, the Upper mounts on front strut and rear shock do transmit more NVH, but not on tar strips, and normal highway or at speed, just at parking lot speeds.

Mostly happy.

Not so hot because of firmness/jarring for day to day?
More like it don't have bushings. So over bumps the sounds are not the best to hear coming from your suspension in terms of firmness on my settings it actually ride a lot better then OEM suspension but shock bearings instead of bushings is a big deal sound wise. On the track on the other hand is night and day difference
Here is the Ohlins with 305/30 Nankang's on the new pavement


Here is my previous lap on the OEM PP1 suspension with 275/35 Zestino's:



You can see how the Suspension + Tires made a huge difference in lap times and car performance.

Personally I would go with something a little more refined. After having a set of Steedas and then going to the FR track dampers, I would go with the latter or some Billsteins.
FR meaning the Ford Performance Track setup?

Do you still run the stock magneride dampers? I’m trying to see which one I should get and I can’t chose between the one I poster and the FP track setup

Pedders coilovers, very happy with them so far. only about 10k miles on them though. Also stop the hop ultimate package but no diff bushings.

How close is FP to PP2 damping, rates, sway bars, etc. So far I'm only running GC camber plates to maximize corner weight and neutralize handling. I'm happy, predictable, balanced.

This Las Vegas track has curbs that you apex on them plus some dips and off-camber tight turns. I'm ok trying to keep up with buddy's modded 700whp ZL1. He buries me on straights of course. I'll be looking at aftermarket later on but not need it yet.

Do you run street only or some track? What springs are you running?
