You guys are being too harsh. M5150 has a right to buy any mods he want to just like any of us. If he has the money and wants to spend it on triple adjustables, he's free to do so. There is no question that they have the potential to perform better than stock with the right tuning and driver. Just be aware of some of the issues to expect as we've noted, and have fun. They are definitely the best mod if you like to tinker, seriously. And definitely come out to the track with us.

Richard,

You're right. He does have the right to buy anything he wants. However, this is the racing and competition forum, not the bling bling forum. In this forum we try to get to the heart of the problem when someone posts, not just say "get this or that". Unless he's been on a track, and extensively, there's no way he's identifying problems with turn in, rebound, compression, etc....Those are not things you identify by canyon racing and quite honestly if he were driving at speeds where he might have a chance of identifying such problems in a canyon I'd be scared for those other people in the canyon with him. Personally, I think this should be moved to off topic or somewhere else more fitting of a non-competition related thread.

Here's a link to the subject matter that is proper for this forum:

I don't think a bling bling thread about canyon racing qualifies. Sorry for being blunt.

Hmm, thought you were done? Shock/suspension is part of the racing forum, as it pertains to time spent on a race track. Since, as far as we know, you haven't ever been near a race track with any of your cars this has nothing to do with a racetrack. There are threads all over this board about aftermarket suspension that would be moved if they were put here because the end result people are looking for has nothing to do with racing. After you've been to a track and determined that you really need to upgrade then you might have a case for posting this here. Until then it's not appropriate IMO.
