What about this outfit?

They also list the 2 way Motons without the reservoirs that no one else seems to carry.

Moton the company was going bankrupt and got bought out by a company the makes suspensions for more import tuner (Subie/Evo) crowd named AST. They are well respected in that industry though.
The founders of Motion Control were the guys who basically ran Moton-USA and were not kept when the acquisition took place. Motion Control is brand new this year. AST is still recovering the poor shape that Moton was in before it was about to go under. Parts missing, or needing to be redeveloped etc.
Now is not a confidence inspiring time to own Motons. Motion Control will take over in the US IMO, that's how big the names of the owners are in the Suspension Industry.

Your suspension will totally transform the car, and how YOU use and utilize it's capabilities.... Best of luck
What spring rates did you go with? Spec's?? I have Triple Adjustables on my GT2, if I could do it over, I would have went for a basic Moton setup... Too much adjustability :/
How is the shifter/gearbox? Would love to hear your impressions

Latest photos so far. Front and rear reservoir mounting. It should all be done by Tuesday when I plan on picking up the car. I will take better pictures when I get it back in my own garage.

Fire Bottle mounting behind passenger seat on the floor:
I went with a Safecraft 5lb Halon bottle. I didn't want foam ruining my leather interior in case of accidental discharge.
Also, very clean reservoir mounting on the roll bar uprights.

I just got my car home, and what a great job Piper Motorsport did on all the work. It's perfect. Their quality of work amazes me.
Just a few quick impressions:
The MCS suspension seemed great during my three hour ride home, but I am sure it is hard to tell how great it really is until pushed to the limit on the track. That will have to wait until Spring for me. I will also have to play with the settings once I can get it to the track. It is set up at a nominal setting for now, which to me seems perfect for the street. Also, the springs seem perfect so far too; stiff but not too stiff. I don't think I would want them much stiffer at this point for the type of driving I do.
I noticed the car seemed more under control during wide open throttle, which immediately increased confidence.
In summery, this is a great mod which I recommend to anyone looking to take their car's handling to the next level.

Come on out to fatt at spr in the spring... Also check out zone 2 three day at vir that is an incredible event... I should be instructing at both and would love to take a ride with ya! Remember adj suspension is only as effective as how good you can dial it in to your own driving style... That's why i didn't comment on spring rates for you, ideally you should have multiple rate pairs for front and back. Can't wait to see the car, looks like ole Mitch there is churning out good work, he did the first cage in my touring car years ago!
