So are you leaving the factory subframe bushings? From everything I have been told and read this is one of the first things that should be done. Just trying to figure out all of this for myself.

Blair had suggested to change the subframe bushings. I have run the stock ones on my personal car and we are trying to duplicate that setup as per customer request. I have seen the data behind the subframe bushings, and have used them on numerous other applications... However, for this build it was not in the cards.

We only install the ECS Line Lock kit in-house here. It is $350 installed, brakes bled.

Thanks guys!

Been driving the car for the last couple of days and the difference in the ride quality is huge!

Dyno'd it after the break in and the 784rwhp didnt hurt the ride quality either.

Final stance pic... Like we were discussing, now it does not look like another 20" tuner car, it looks like the sports car it was meant to be !

Agreed! Of course car building is personal preference which is one of the things that makes a car show great. For me I like subtle, not too flashy, with the muscle behind it to make it stand out.
This car is about as close to a black 68 RS/SS as you can get in the new body style IMO, I really like it.
