yeah it is, makes it a bit more responsive and gain a few horses, theyre all secondhand cheap parts (well except for the manifold) so i might aswell give it a go and find the benefits for myself

at the min 40mm but they were secondhand spax things for £40 so thought it was a bargain at the time but theyre really bouncy so im gonna get some weitec coilovers next month and get it sitting nice and low,
those pics were with 195/50/15's aswell which were scrubbing the rear so got them changed to 45's and its fine at the rear now
