    guys with the rs tuning maps

    few questions... when cold its an absolute pig to drive, and I don't mean 172/197 pig I mean worse, any of you have this issue or does it get better with time? part throttle for example when cruising on the motorway its very jerky you either have to speed up or slow down to get it running...

    Brake pedal shuddering when im going fast braking in corners

    depends how hard your cornering, you will get this if your cocking a wheel!

    Brake conversion??

    while it wont really give you any more braking power it will stabilize the car under hard braking both my GT and Gordini are horrible under hard braking compaired to a car with discs on the rear!

    lowering- How low is good/best for handling?

    This was perfect for my needs/driving style, the AP's fixed damping dampers were brilliant for road use when I first fitted them the car was still running budget ditch finder tyres and even still the difference especially on corner exit was brilliant I could get on the power so much earlier...
