I'm not at that point yet. I know that if I throw in some GT3 seats; she'll never ride with me again.

Not sure what you have currently, but when I switched from stock to pss10, the ride was actually softer (set at 5/6 back then) in a good way.

My wife doesn't really complain about the car except for I'm spending too much money on it (we have shared accounts

They were pretty easy to do and I spent most of the time trying to put the Evo air intake back in. If it wasn't the intake, the job should take less than an hour including lifting all 4 corners.

After I put everything back, there was still light outside so I took her out for a spin. I have been running my pss10s pretty stiff (8/10), so I only noticed a little improvements when taking corners. One thing I noticed the most was the sound; for some reason, I could hear much more engine sounds from all rpm ranges. I have been reading other posts that people said the car feels more "raw" after installing the engine mounts. Now, I totally understand what they meant.
