    FWIW, I race on stock ECS struts. I just set them to sport and unplug. The only issue is getting a spring on them with the rate you want and full travel. I love ECS struts, and I'd suggest troubleshooting yours.
    I agree, the stock ECS struts are no bad at all. I've been racing with them for a while and so far they are definitely not the limiting factor for me on the track.

    Wow looks like that would be something fun to do. Really giving all the options a lot of thought. Should have a decision made shortly, but it is leaning towards sending the car to Muellerized to have them do the suspension work. Really don't have much time or space for a side project and wanna have the car running after sitting for more than a year. Also read a lot of reviews from multiple forums on the Ohlins R&T and people seem to love how they feel on the street.
