Default Anti roll bar / ECU stage 1 ungrades


Hi, I've got a 20009-3 lpt. I just fitted Klein lower springs ( 35mm )mainly for the looks, but was amazed with the improvement in handling, corner roll has beenhugely improved. I'm interested in upgrading both anti roll bars with polyurethane bushes. Will the new anti roll bars raise the ride height? Regarding the ECU upgrade which system would be recommended, I was looking at one on Elkparts from Speedparts 73hp increase or Abbott's 43hp increase. More power = more heat, is there enough spare capacity in the standard cooling system? Any information would be gratefully received.


Regards Macphisto

The anti roll bar will not raise ride height, but will impact handling significantly...not the thing with ECU upgrades is that you have to rear reviews...we in the US do not have an lpt model I believe and I have no firsthand experience with Abbott's or Elkparts, so I'm no help in this department.
