you are wrong man. it has nothing to do with the powerband. you heel-toe when you downshift: when you downshift the rev's go up: the revs go up putting you in the powerband more. this is used when slowing down for a corner or a drift. it has nothing to do with keeping the engine in it's powerband.
suspension: lowering the car lowers it's center of gravity: lower center of gravity equals better handling. suspensions are made to be stiff to decrease body roll and stiffen the chassis. all this leads to better handling. the stiffer the springs, the stiffer the chassis and the lower the body roll. ride comfort is also sacrificed.
