Why did you ask this same question 'again', after having already started another thread with the exact same question?

I'm pretty sure the Corvette would need to be lowered at least 2.25" to beat a corba.

Now I'm no expert, but I don't think lowering a car will improve performance at all... Not even a little bit. Unless you are driving a road course.
