My 2013 Dodge Dart Rallye needed some performance upgrades this year; the stock suspension was finally ready to be replaced, and I was looking for some performance upgrades to help me out on the AutoX courses in my area. After doing some research, I found these Megan Racing coilovers and made the purchase through Affirm [dad life].
The coilovers came in a professionally sealed and packaged box, quickly, via Fedex. Luckily I was able to work from home on the day of delivery and signed for the order. A nice touch to keep my new investment safe and secure.
I had a local dealer install the coilovers for me, as these coilovers were replacing stock suspension that was NEVER replaced since the car was brand new. Despite some corrosion issues between an aluminum knuckle and steel strut, the coilovers went in without much more hassle. I also had the Dart aligned when all was said and done.
The first event with the coilovers was a night and day difference. No more body roll, no negative weight transfer... the Dart stayed very composed and planted throughout the course. I could keep my foot planted on the accelerator, late brake, and feel the car move gracefully to where I needed it to be without any apprehension.
Normal day-to-day street driving is also nice! The dampening is set to soft for the street, and I haven't messed with it during AutoX [yet], as I don't feel the Dart needs to be stiffer for my needs. Again, still learning the suspension behavior... but it's been a blast so far!
Here's an onboard from my fastest run on 5/11. Enjoy. :)
