Possible IRS swap??


I was recently offered a chance to swap out to an IRS rear for my car. Before anyone says it my car does not get track time just street driven and taking exits pretty quick.

I was wondering all of what needed to be done to complete this swap or is it direct?

I'm looking for solid Facts and straight up opinions, and experience.

Better handling in the corners from what I hear.

x2 and it can be beefed up for the strip but it is a little more costly than a SRA to do so.

IRS is heavier, ride quality was a little better when I had IRS in my car.
