What can you say about the strut ball joint system that was also released?
The monoball kit is really targeted for guys that autocross/track their cars more then anything although if you drive "spiritedly" they definitely have value as well.

Basically it improves on the tactile feel of driving for lack of a better way of saying it. The improved bearings allow the steering to be more predictable and removes the delay in between the input (turning the wheel) and the output (the car actually turning). As a result you feel more connected to the road inspiring more confidence given the car behaves exactly as you are telling it in real time.

It's one of those parts that you see on paper and don't think much about but once you experience it you understand its value. Such is the life of a lot of suspension parts actually.

Someone actually had a really good description of monoballs that I can't for the life of me think who it was. Might have been Turner actually...
