You need stickier or wider tires, or better driving skills then...
...with a very similar STaSIS suspension, I can't imagine the degree of recklessness I would have to be exhibiting on the street to need to take corners faster than I can right now.

Did he say the valving change would be noticeable to achive what you want?
I'd think it'd be almost better to have semi-soft valving on stiffer springs but it would probably have the tendency to "bounce" Give Ryan another buzz.

i think i will *always* want to take corners faster than whatever i have at a certain time...
i just simply want to get the max out of my stasis as possible. driving skills can always improve. i do that as much as i can.

we'll see. maybe i wasn't clear with him.
in any case, after i get my package, i'll have them installed and ask him about some damping advice. thanks, though.
oh, and just in case, i just revised my order to 600/700.

shucks... =/
well, then again, ride quality is a very vague term. i love firm riding cars. i don't mind feeling bumps as long as they are not felt constantly and they are "muted." i hate floaty rides... i hate bouncy rides... firm but smooth. that's basically what i'm looking for.
when i went from my ghey h&r/konis to tracksports, the spring rates jumped up but the car ran sooo much smoother. obviously, that's because of the valving, right? i guess i'm looking at another jump in spring rates but was curious if to better "control" the higher spring rate, if going to sport valving would be more beneficial.
