Had the 27won rmm (and D2 springs) installed on my hatch sport today. I’ve had my eyes on these even before I got my car, but after doing a good amount of 1st gear crawling on my daily commute I had the feeling that I really wanted these. Light on/off throttle in 1st at low rpms felt a bit wobbly I think the cars behind me could see the car slightly rocking back and forth on the freeway. So I decided it was time to do it..
I had the d2 springs installed first, and honestly it was mostly a cosmetic choice for me. The car feels slightly stiffer but it’s still far from “tight”. Feels awesome driving closer to the ground though.
The 27won rmm is by far my favorite change along with ktuner. The very first time I got into 1st gear to drive out of the shop was a bit jarring (I had no idea what to expect) but as I drove back home I literally had a smile on my face the whole way.
About NVH, the car has slight vibration on idle and pretty loud vibration when getting into 1st, and then pretty much light vibration all the time after that. I’d describe it more as a sound though, I notice the drone more than the physical vibrations. However the car feels WAY WAY more solid, most importantly for me I actually feel confident riding out 1st gear in uncertain traffic or just whenever I feel like it, and shifting feels better in general.
Also you can hear the engine rev slightly more grunty when you’re outside of the car too, but that’s probably just the vibrations coming out lol
