I changed my set up for Eibach pro springs - lowered the car by about 1 - 2", increased the handling capabilities by quite a lot, not so much roll in the corners but didn't look for any cc plates as I don't think I need them on the pony :-D

I got Ohlins all round - no adjustment that I can see - but amazing for slow and fast driving.

I have a Switch on the Dash to Change it from Passive Mode to Sport Mode. Plus having the KDS alignment has made a good difference.

Alex.. If you want a good set up speak to MAX ( reworks). He has a good set up on his car. He is a ring regular. He will tell you what settings he runs. I need to adjust mine with the change from normal bushes to rose jointed and 16" to 17" wheels.
