I installed the handling kit (FE4 bars & SS1LE end links) and E solid bushings on my '16 magride SS. I am very pleased with the results. I've been toying with adding the gm lowering kit. The kit includes a mag ride software update, but unfortunately the reflash is only compatible for model years '17 and up. Given that the travel center change can be compensated for on '17 & up magride cars via software changes i.e. struts don't have to be changed, I wonder if altering the length of the ride height sensor links on'16 mrc cars to locate the cam on the strut at the same static position as before would be an acceptable workaround?
