There is one thing I noticed that I thought I would mention. If I park and pull the parkin break, u can feel it lean on the rear suspension, which I know is normal, BUT that's also when the rear end suspension becomes uneven, if I park and don't pull the parking break the suspension is even, if I park and do apply the brake, the drivers side drops more then the passenger. It's probaly always done this but I haven't paid attention to it until I got lowered.
Am I being paranoid? Lol

Mines an 07 ss/na with fe3. As u can see on the sheet they didn't keep it within the fe1 specs and the car drives great so they seem to know what they're doing. They do a test drive before and after
