Im sure my JIC when properly set up with corner balance is as good if not better then a stock GT2 set up. Most of the high HP P cars I know of are RWD.

Maybe it's not just about what the car can handle, but about what his average customer can manage behind the wheel. But that's just a guess.

If safety is the issue then tuners should not be selling 700 or 800 RWHP cars period. Primary resposibility rests on the driver. My point is, no suspension- GT2 spec or not, will save you when you get in trouble in one of these cars...
One reason we see 6speeders depart now and then.

Here is what I have on my car... solid subframe bushings, billet lower and upper controll arms... corner balanced and aligned by one of the best in the business.... And my car weighs as much as a GT2 and Im RWD. I can, at my will have the PSM totally disabled via the ECU. I chose to leave it On for now.
this is what came out:

THAT is quite a statement for someone who has Admitted to NOT doing the RWD conversion completely/correctly.
Maybe someone will add this,
"heavychevy does NOT have ALL the facts regarding RWD conversions"
to their sig lines!

I will be upgrading my coilovers from H&R to Techart this week along with new drop links from TRG. I'll have the shop align it to GT2 spec and do a corner balance on the car. I can't wait to see how the suspension improvements will make the car handle...
