it can add droop, it effectively lengthens the spring giving a softer spring rate.

I find on my Zuk that it has softened the ride. I am still SPUA so don't have any axle wrap issues or problems with the spring moving around. On a SPOA car with a V8 you may, actually you will, need to sort ann effective track bar out. Also some people have experienced the 3/4 unloading on steep downhills but I havven't had any dramas with it
