Our New 2012 PRHT SS Project....

[Brian]

Brian,

Thanks for posting the Progress anti-sway bar review. Well done. I'm considering those in the future.

I also look forward to your reviews for the exhaust systems that you were planning to test in December on the 2012 PRHT. I have not seen any more comments about exhaust systems.

So far really have not settled on any particular choice for the exhaust. Changing them around and having some fun trying all the choices we offer on an otherwise stock car again. Very likely we will test our new header with converter on this car.

If you're playing with multiple exhausts, it would be a good opportunity to do something I haven't seen before -- a side by side audio comparison of multiple exhausts under identical conditions on the same car.

please develop a functional front lip spoiler for the NC2, thanks. it has to look cool with your rear spoiler which i'd own right now if not for saving for the SBC 17/9s.

enjoy the car bro.

Thanks Guys, great suggestions. Hope to finish the break-in mileage and get a base dyno reading and then start playing. Likely will do some work to make the body more aggressive looking and a front splitter would be part of that effort (our current 06-08 design won't fit the 09+).

Brian,

I don't seem to have that foam on my '09 NC2. Maybe it was added later.

Do you have spring rates for these new Progress bars, or do you know how stiff they are (in numbers) compared to stock NC or RX-8 bars?

Thanks for continuing to bring good Miata parts to market. You've been the leader in NC parts since I've been on the Miata scene, and it's good to see you are expanding.

only PRHT has the foam filling in the suspension subframe!

Interesting, that explains why I had not noticed it before....

06-08 does not any model have it. only 09+ PRHT
this was one of the changes they made during the facelift.

Whats the thickness of these sway bars (or did I miss that)

How do they compare to others?

Yes, I'd love to see some numbers on the spring rates or comparison to other common choices.
