Bilstein are also technical partners with lichfield. Forge and lichfield have a very good relationship!

Im liking all the collaboration going on with all the big tuners and hardware suppliers.  It means loads of development for new cars much sooner.

Did you see what someone posted about stasis on FB :scared:

I like forge good customer service from my experience.

Milltek however, well overpriced, and not all that well designed either going by the issue I had with mine
