KW V3 and SPC CA Detail Review for CMS4
All I can said is WOW
Almost zero body roll, razor sharp steering, more power transfer to tires. After picking the car up from the tuner shop, took the car for testing at Germantown (famous for twisty roads) Put around 40mins testing the handling and ride.
Impression:
Totally transform the car, the handling is confidence inspiring now, it handle like my friend's JCW Hatch. In corner speed wise, they are very similar now. The JCW Hatch power to weight ratio and brembo brakes is better of course. But with more tuning (ECU Flash, full exhaust system power will be better for the CMS4)
I had Dynasport set the stiff and rebound at 70%. The ride is actually better IMO, less mushy and floating feeling comparing to stock. It feels firmer of course but never uncomfortable. I will keep this setting for a few weeks then dial it to 80% then to 90%.
Attached picture of before and after the lowering. Love the way the car looks and drives now. Overall if you are looking to transform your the car's handling from so so fun to extremely enjoyable driving, then the KW V3 is for you. Highly recommend to all CM owners.
I went to the extreme by lowering it so much, the beauty of the KW V3 you can fine tune to exacting what you want, from getting a 1" lowering and stiffen up the handling up a bit to carry your kids around and still have funnier car or someone like me who are track junkie and want to squeeze the most out of the car's chassis. This system does it all, worth every penny
Next ECU Tuning, Cravenspeed SSK, BOV Springs, Full Exhaust System
Big thanks to Kris for getting the KW V3 out to me on short notice and Ryan at Dynasport for setting and dialing the car in so perfectly.
