Oh come on Jose, you need to loosen up. You will find that there is a fair amount of good hearted ribbing between all of us.

Jim I am going with AMR coilovers with 600/700 lb springs or 11/13 to start with. They are single 8 way rebound adjustable.

I wanted to go with the stance 3ways, but it looks like they would bump me out of BSP (if I decide to mess around with autox) because it looks like you can only have 2 way adjustable in that class. Also, if the Evo gets bumped out of BSP, then I wil not be autocrossing.

Very good choice, I am shopping around and am thinking 9/10k or 9/11k for my application.

i'd say atleast 10/12k since you use race tires.

I do not believe that this is true.

Stance 3 ways come with Swift springs. They also have 2 ways coming.

I could swear I read that you could only use 2 way adjustable in SP. I tried to email Stance directly and ask about their shock design and what type of valve/shim they used in the shock and they were less than helpful. They also sent me the same cheesy shock dyno that they have on their website. I would really love to have the adjustablity of a two or 3 way, but it may be too many things to tweak at once.

I like the Ast's, but they also have a long wait and I would still have to buy camber plates at $400.

I like that AMR is easy to get ahold of, and he will revalve the shocks cheaply and new springs are $62 a set. I can get a custom shock and camber plate for $1725.

I still haven't ordered yet as AMR said it would be a while.

Getting shock dynos is like pulling teeth with any vendor IMO. Did you email mike@tougefactory.com? TF is the Stance US rep basically and Mike's always been super helpful to me.

The AMRs look pretty nice too honestly.

I'll be at the Cobb Plano "First Thursday" if anyone wants to talk shocks. There is a lot of good and bad information out there that I can clear up. If anyone wants a shock dyno'd, feel free to bring it to the meet and we'll throw it on there and explain what you're seeing.

Do you know what rates will be offered on the 4100's yet? I tried to contact you through Vorshlag's email and was told that the 4100's won't be offered for the Evo at all. After directing the responder to AST USA, I was told the rate was TBA.

For the first kits, rate will be customizable.
