Ordering the Steeda G-Trac Stage 1 and the Steeda G-Trac Stage 2 kits, but I have a few questions. Will it lower the car - how much? Does the ride quality suffer much - concerned about it creating a whole mess of squeaks and rattles due to the harder ride. Also, will a front strut tower brace clear the KB Supercharger on the 2002? Thanks.

The Stage 1 kit comes with sport springs, and that will lower the car 1" to 1 1/4" inches. As for quality of ride, it will be a little stiffer, but I don't think it will start producing squeaks and rattles.

I don't know if the strut tower bar will clear the supercharger, but I would imagine that I would. They claim it allows room for aftermarket manifolds, so I would give them a call and ask them to be 100% sure.

Thanks for the info - now I just need to worry about tire size and wheels for my next upgrade.

I have both the Stage 1 & 2 kits, and love them. The ride is stiffer, and dropped about 1 1/4" but not harsh, and no squeeks or rattles. Front end dive on braking is dramatically reduced. Make sure you get the rear control arms tightened properly, or you will get some thunking. Trying to find what was making that noise drove me nucking futz.
