MSW HGTC & FHP Sway Bars (Finally!)

Wow, its great to see all you guys posting again.
Dave I loved the steering ECU I got from you for my 550 and will be in touch to discuss the sway bars with you as well.

Yes I think that was it but I will ask and report back. It sharpened the turn in, and the hairs on my neck, several degrees in both this and my manual 430, but without ruining things. It means you are 40% into a corner where previously you were 20% so you have to pay attention never to get to 120%.

 

Count me in for a 19 please!

 

That makes sense.

DM/conversation completed! ;-)

 

Daniel, John- Great price on the ARB. Last time I saw an HGTC or FHP bar for sale the price was nearly $4K.

 

agreed

 

Imagine if a brand new oem FHP bar was placed on BAT. It would probably go for more than 4k since theres a whole bunch of us that need the bar to complete the FHP package

 

Just sent Daniel an "I'm in" message for the 19mm bar for my stock SA. After 15 years of caring including recent heavy servicing/repairs it's time to make this SA a better car. Thank you CribbJ for making this happen.

 

Got it @SCantera . Will DM you later this evening. Thank you!

 

How are they going?

 

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!!! Update!!!

 

@Cribbj only just seen this thread!

I'm glad you got to sample and drive Kents 575M.

During development we must have done some 30+ Dyno pulls to get that car just perfect, exactly like the way Kent wanted it - being a Pro test driver his feedback was exceptional. I kid you not he could even tell when I was a decimal point out on my throttle smoothing tip in! Haha

I'm absolutely super happy how all my hard calibration work and Kent's extremely detailed driving reports helped to refine the final car.

Q. Did you drive it in both Normal and Sport too (?) Because it has differential driving modes unlike the stock 575M that we added into his fully custom firmware.

His final car is testament to just how 'unfinished' the stock 575M calibration was compared to what we finally achieved. It stands as one of my favorite Ferrari before and after conversions I ever did but boy did we spend hundreds of hours on it in the end!

As for the wheelspin, yes he still needs to upgrade his tires and just like Taz I strongly recommended Michelin PS4S too. Love them.

The ARB project is a great addition and if you need work to upgrade suspension ECUs too hit me up...

Trev I will let you know how it fares on my FHP 575 with new semi race tires (RE71R)

It’s still in the 40s (41 and rain as we speak) but supposed to warm up in the next week or two so I can finally do it.

 

Would you recommend these tyres over PS4Ss? I have the latter on my 575 and my 430 (as well as my other cars). Brilliant tyres but maybe slightly soft sidewalls than should be, for a racier experience. But, we have mixed quality roads here and wouldn't want tramlining and hop skip and jumping when the surface is not perfect.

 

I would caution
On the positive side: Incredible steering precision, grip level, braking performance. Realize the grip even when cold (assuming > 60deg F / 15deg C ambiant) is higher than my other cars with 4S. Never had any hop issues
Negative side: Much harsher ride (they are HARD tires.... same hardness as my old worn hard as rock Pirrelli), low life (last likely 5-10k miles top). They tramline slightly on my Ferraris, more so on my BMWs. The tramline symptoms get much better as the tires warm up.
