172 MPH what mods will make it more stable at high speeds?
What suspension mods or spoilers will help @ high speeds. I had no idea it felt this loose at high speeds..no breeze road was fairly smooth but at that fast I guess any imperfections feel like small humps.

The main thing you're going to want to do is go to a track.
 Once you've done that: Font splitter Lowered ride height (if possible) Rocker Moldings Hood vents (arguably help) |

I have the 1LE splitter and the side skirts. So, winglets and, a, larger spoiler should help.

If you have not done so already, replace all the rubber bushings in the car! This and sways made my car a lot less nervous at higher speeds.

How often are you hitting this mythical 172mph is what I'd like to know?

I think I would spend my money first on a Roll cage, 5 point seat-belt setup, and a frikin helmet, before I would want to start feeling all warm and fuzzy at 170mph+
But that's just me.

My ZL1 felt dead stable at those speeds so maybe some ZL parts will help.

Suspension and Aero. Did you ever pull the trigger on that suspension package? That will help out a ton!
