Scoobyworld Handling Pack 1
 
Thinking of getting the below kit from Scoobyworld around £700 fitted. Would you recommend this?

My STI does feel light and not 'grounded' at speed (120+ on private rd) would this kit help??

Whiteline 22mm adjustable Rear Anti Roll bar and poly bushes
Whiteline 24mm adjustable Front Anti Roll bar and poly bushes
Whiteline Anti Lift Kit
4 Wheel laser Alignment

many thanks..

Whats your current geometry settings? Might be something amiss there.
Same goes for the tyres - what brand are you running and what pressures?
I'd also consider uprating the droplinks if uprating the anti roll bars as this will give a more accurate transfer of loading between suspension movement and bar movement.

I think coilovers are better option then above kit.

I'd agree with this - if it's not feeling quite right it's probably that your alignment is out... the arbs won't help make it feel any more planted in a straight line, but they will help it through the corners (as will the ALK).

Assuming your drop links are not the composite dog bone (front) / C shaped (rear) links then the stock items are actually pretty decent so I personally wouldn't bother with those.

To be fair mate, that sounds more like aerodynamics than suspension!

ARBSs more to do with roll in corners and ALK about reducing understeer, particularly in tight bends.

Always a good idea to have alignment checked, but I don't think any of the rest of the above would resolve your issue.

I drove mine with similar speed (germany) try to stand with new golf tfsi and bmw5 330 and i had similar feelings to yours
,straight after i changed on coilovers but i added stage 1 kit too
now is not bad but i need yet roll centre kit, new arms and links.
with 700 quid You should do coilovers and allingment

fast road geometey on your current setup and you'll feel the difference straight away. All the mods listed will be beneficial only on the track. dont get the coils for the road, you will regrett it...

Just my 2p worth...
