I just got the KG/MM s21 super sport springs for x-mas. I wanted the turbo springs which have spring rates of 4.8kg/mm (268.8 lb/ft)in the front and 4.0kg/mm (224 lb/ft)in the rear. What I got was the non turbo springs which the only difference is the front springs which has a spring rate of 4.6kg/mm (257.6 lb/ft). My question is there going to be a noticeable difference, especially after I swap in the sr20? TIA

Hmm... thats not really a big difference... at least, I dont think it is... not that I have any real experience between going from one spring and then going to another spring that's just slightly different.

MrMigs are those KG/MM's in your sig? If so which ones are those and what shocks are you using and how do they work together? Thanks
