How is it to drive? dos it give better reaction on the road?
I have considered doing the same. but I want the engine to run smooth first.... and I just want to know the difference before I am doing the same

It was a good decision on the whole , the car is more set on the road and cant really think of any negatives yet ! I had read alot about loss of comfort and harsh ride but mine seems fine , my other standard 07 corsa is much stiffer
The pi springs iv used are said to be one of the hardest choices but can honestly say im suprised how practical the car is still to use sure you cant go barreling over the the speed bumps but thats probably a good thing anyway

i would defo recomend doing it,im gona get some shocks later on and hope that will be even better :)
