You just described my car. And I was wondering when someone was going to bring Shaik at FatCat Motor Sport up. He really is quite brilliant at suspension design.
My dalema is finding a aftermarket manufacturer that produces OEM style springs to work with factory dampers, and larger then OEM sway bars.

All I have been able to find are (Beauty Springs) that just lower the car!!!!

I need something suitable for Autocross.....

Does as anyone know the spring rates for the BMW Mperformance (Red) springs
BMW doesn't trust its consumers with that kinda information
