Cruising at low rpm or on the highway in 7th and 8th gear there is minimal drone...many times it’s indistinguishable from the normal xforce. When you are on the gas or getting off the gas it sounds insane. Will get some good clips soon from the outside.

Cool and nicely done. Mike (Figs) is just awesome.

Just curious, what is your goal and advantages with this setup? Why customize Ohlins?

Simply put, the ttx/ILX damper is the best on the market. The reason race teams pay for them. Most companies will give the shocks to race teams as sponsors. Ohlins doesn’t sponsor anyone because they don’t have to.
My motto is get the best parts for the job and do it once.

This package is heads and shoulders above the other options on the market.🏎

I thought Ohlins already had a coilover for the F? Why not just use that?

The current Ohlins kit is a completely different animal. Single adjustable and more of a road coilovers that is track capable. This is a full blown racing shock that is streetable.😉

I normally do not like big wings on cars, but yours looks pretty good. That look was ruined in the early 2000s for me after fast and the furious came out and 25% of the accords and civics in Indy had them. If it wasn’t for that I probably would like them more.

Good job so far. Plan for aftermarket wheels anytime soon?

I love the stock forged BBS wheels that came on this year. I may pick up a second set of aftermarket wheels with R-Comp tires next year for track duty.

the 12+ wheels are pretty sought after. One of the better stock wheels I have seen.
