see if you get the sound with this....

Yes, sound is there. I had to crank it up but I is working and you can hear that roadrunner engine zinging rpms no problem.

PS. did you see how huge the spring diameter is on the coilovers they use? hmm...

I wonder where those springs came from? ;D

BTW Dave Born owns a 2012 Kona Blue BOSS 302. He has good taste in Mustangs. Nice job Dave!

I'll see if I can record that off of my DVR with some better sound.

I would say about 600 pound fronts would be close

Ahh.. so going that high in rate means a much larger wire size, and to package that size with the solid heights you need a larger spring ID. Also, with such a small diameter coil and that high rate the wire is too short and causes ridiculous undesired side loads.

600lbs/in. I have heard Vorshlag was at 800lbs /in with that insane downforce setup.

I'm not sure if this is any better but here it is. You'll need to turn your volume way up to hear it.

Yeah, between the aero and the 335 Hoosier up front we moved to a relatively unstreetable 800 lb/in spring up front. For most people we run either a 450 or 600 up front. Most of our competitive setups use the 600. The wire size and spring length isn't that bad in the Hyperco 600 we use.
