Thanks for taking the time to document your impressive list of upgrades. I'm in the middle of upgrading suspension on my 2019 C2 and your project was instrumental in helping me decide on the right mix of upgrades and equipment OEMs. Going with TechArt lowering springs first, and then upgrading front and rear sway bars to GT3 spec, and may add drop links. Again, appreciate you sharing your ideas. Cheers!

I'm sure you'll be very pleased with the results. Years down the road now, and I wouldn't change a thing. The car is incredible especially on winding roads.
Please share some pics when done.

Will certainly do. Getting ready to push that buy button on GT3 sway bars and drop links from Tarret. Tarret website mentions adjustable rear toe link to maintain proper geometry after lowering, as well as locking control kit for it (to maintain integrity of proper alignment over time). Did you consider any of these additions? Cheers!
