How could a piece of light alloy make so much difference!!! Dont know if different cars make react differently but if you are thinking about getting one of these you should!!
Daft as it sounds but the car feels quicker ..reason being torque steer is reduced massivly so the sprint is quicker and dont have to keep backing off, wheelspin is reduced ..just seems to bite! And the bends....defo quicker through the bends.....the best cheap mod yet!!!

Makes you wonder why Volvo didn't fit one as standard to their "sports" car in the first place!
Fun in the twisties!
We take the "be polite" rule very seriously!
