Yes, HTS long stroke and APEX spring with unknown spring rate (30-35mm lower and I guess around 2-2.5kg springs).

BEFORE you try all the others... get appropriate springs for your current set up! 4 springs will cost you ... what... 200 Euro... which you can sell if you don't like....

I haven't driven the 'ring...

RANT: all of you are assholes you know that... j/k
taking my car to the 'ring is on my bucket list.


so getting back to the point...... get yourself a set of springs... in a 3 to 2 ratio from front to back. I prefer "soft" - Surreptitious rides on 5.3kg/mm front, 3.5kg/mm rear. To add response use a 25mm (1") front bar, and tune oversteer with a rear bar - begin with the stock rear bar. Remember you are going to have a lot more power now... so you don't have to run the rear as tight to still get rotation


btw here is the adjustment chart for the HTS... WARNING loosening over 7 1/2 turns can lead to the adjuster loosing contact with the internal adjuster and may damage the shock. I'm running about 4 turns in the front and 3 1/2 turns in the back
