it feels just as peppy as a stock 94-98 GT to me(from what I remember of my 96) and about on par with my old full bolt on 2k V6 stang. the only difference I feel is a lack of low end tq compared to the stangs

. Must not be a manual. The best part of my day is driving my SC. I recognize that it's not a rocket or an F1 car but it is smooth, predictable, well balanced, and has good ratios for normal driving conditions. It's comfortable and quiet and you gotta love the smoothness of that online six.

I came from having Supra KYB and eibach springs and went to BC Racing coilovers. The ride is much better now and feels like a smaller car. I have it set pretty stiff as I felt the KYB/eibach set up was weak sauce. I also hade a stock SC and that was like a firm Cadi. Which means that handling sucked.

I am also boosted and beat a 2005 CBR600RR a couple of weeks back(on a closed course in Mexico). Now 150+mph feels smooth as silk. Before the kyb/eibach was very floaty.

IMO stock suspension on a boosted car would not be smart at all. But then again I drive my car as if everytime is my last(without putting anyones life in danger). Also at the moment my thickster is on a diet.

lol wow I don't expect replies when I make posts. I wasn't comparing Sc's to Evo's. Two different creatures. Although when I boost my Sc I plan on going AWD hunting.. starting with a certain blue wagon with a STI swap... grudge match for the win! But yeah I read all day about which coils to get and why and why not but I havent seen anyone ask why, and ask how it feels under power and stress of turning at higher speeds. I think ill be happy with the SC regardless.
