Can also be improper preload on the springs and they're moving around wen fully uncompressed. Also make sure there are either rubber or plastic isolatorsnbetween all metal parts. What brand of coilover? Solid pillow uppers or rubber mount?
Rubber mounts. I figure my preload is not quite accurate. I'll check on them.
I use ISC coils.
When running fast even on curves the suspesion holds well no noise heard.
Thanks for the info.

Well already ordered my powertrix and with the overwhelming positive reviews I think I'll be ok, just have to hope I can take the spring rates.

Question for those that have done the install, are the rear springs fully relaxed once if the ground or do you need to slowly lower the arm with a jack or pole jack? If needing to slowly lower the arm can it be done with just usual jack height of car (meaning there is enough swing room of the arm to get the spring out before hitting the concrete).

You did good. If I had to do it all over again I would get the Powertrix.
