Mullerized JIC's? Thoughts, opinions, feedback?
Currently i have a set of BC racing coils. i have only had them 6 months or so, but have already found that they arent that great when it comes to autox. i have a LOT of body roll, even when adjusting the stiffness setting.
Next year at autox is going to be VERY competetive. There is a pesky Evo X that beat my *** last year, so im trying to not let that happen again.
so i have been thinkin about a new setup, and saw the mullerized JIC's. I know Muller does some GREAT work, but wanted to see what you guys actually thought, and had used/trusted.
thanks!
p.s. other mods on my car are -
Whiteline rear sway
Whiteline bump steer kit (I HATE IT!!!! makes the car bouncy)
Whiteline Roll center kit.

For an VIII/IX - depending on rim size and offset you could fit 285's under the stock fenders. It'll take some work but I've seen it done and there's threads out there with details.
Beyond them, widebody kit, or winder fenders are needed.

You sure that wasn't the BC's doing that?
We've run 12k/16k on KW's, and it's definitely pushing the valving at those rates. For your uses, it might not be the best choice.
I don't have any experience with Mueller's JICs. I'm not really a fan of standard JIC valving......his must be a lot better.

I also wouldn't get the standard valving from what I've read. Notice SmikeEvo and Drew@GTWorx both mention custom valving those.
KW's usually go to people that want to tweak their setups continuously as they have a LOT of adjustment options. If you don't want that - and have raised your pricerange up around $3k - check out Ohlin DFV's.

I was also in the same situation as the OP. I had BC coilovers that worked fine (IMO) on street tires, but on R-comps, there was a lot of body roll even with a rear anti-sway...
I just picked up a set of Robispec'd KW3's with 8k F / 9k R springs. I'm really wondering if I should go with a higher spring rate before I get these installed. I'd still like to keep it somewhat streetable however, but I don't want much body roll during autox on r-comps. Otherwise it just seems to prematurely wear the outter edges, even with quite a bit of camber....

What class are you racing in?
I'd vote skip JICs altogether, KW v3 at the minimum. I'm driving on JICs right now and raced STU on them for a season. Not Muellerized to MY specs, but they have been Muellerized before, and there is a limit to how much you can optimize, Muellerize, or fix JIC valving, even if you're Mueller.
