Car is getting Muellerized as I type this. I would like to hear some opinions on the stage 1+ kit. How is the daily drivability with the kit? More importantly, how much does it change the track dynamics of the car? One of my biggest annoyances is how much the stock suspension nose dives/lifts under hard decel/accel. Any input is appreciated!

The DD driveablity will be fine or better with no loss in comfort.

The trackability of the car will be vastly improved

You will of course, still be limited by your stock springs/shocks, but expect moderate improvement and you will be golden

As far as "track dynamics" .... The car will improve.... Don't expect "coilover" performance.... But the car will corner flatter and rotate a lot better...... THAT also depends on your alignment settings.... If you're going for maximum grip then obviously it will be better. As for the DD ..... It feels and rides smooth and quiet like stock....with a lot of the "nose dive" action gone. I have had the exact same set-up on my X as u are getting since January..... I have no complaints. My settings are +2.5/+1.6 front and rear camber respectively. You will notice a big difference.

Thanks for the replies, I am getting anxious to get the car back.

You're running with positive camber? I don't suppose you know what the factory setting are?

If you go to Ohlins then hell yeah Lol

I loved the improvement from stock to Stage 1. Going to Coilovers becomes totally dependant on the settings you request.

Muellerized will take care of you

Make sure you go with braided lines, Motul fluid, and better brake pads too. Now that it'll handle better you'll carry more speed into the corners and the more solid feel will be greatly appreciated. I also went with the W/L roll center kit and urethane bushings. In any case John and the guys know their S*%t you'll love anything you have done.
