Thumbs up Just got Muellerized!

WOW! Feels like a totally different car. The Buddy Clubs are 100 times better than the stock 03 suspension in terms of ride quality. The suspension feels a lot better damped and going over bumps and ruts here in Detroit is totally bearable now. The handling is excellent (haven't gotten it aligned yet so just imagine what it would be like then). I'm taking the tight ramps at 50mph (too much damn traffic) with zero body roll and the front end just wants to bite harder. 50mph now feels like 40mph with the stock suspension...totally composed on the ramps and i'm sure with no traffic I can easily take that sharp turn at 60-65mph without a problem. Will add more after I've had a chance to track with this set up and after alignment. The drop is really good too. If I had to guess i'm thinking it's easily about 2inches (haven't measured it yet).

Overall I'm extremely happy with the handling and can't wait to get the car aligned and ready for the track.

Also wanted to add that John has great customer service and has always been available and very patient with my questions and stands a 100% behind his products.

Just wanted to chime in again and let anyone considering RRE set up is to trust John decision, but you have to be honest about exactly what you want out of the set up too.

I'm extremely happy with the ride quality and handling. Don't even have words to decribe how great it is.

I have been Muellerized for a year and a 1/2 and can't even think of driving any other way. My car was transformed the day it got setup by John. Driving a car with suspension with a "world challenge" spec does takes its toll - tires etc. It also leaves me smiling every single time I turn a corner at speed. That is what I asked for and that is what I got.

Muellerized= setting things up correct the first time and doing it right. The track record they are building winning race after race is proof of that.

best is to just talk to john, there's not a huge diff between the two but i think the quality of the buddyclub units really shines over the jics
