Dear lord in my absence the thread has evolved into a giant oem-style vs. true-type debate.
Just bought my suspension links and hopefully flying back to Texas in another week or two to install my new suspension links, A/C, some other things and then drive the car up here to Virginia. Oh and a side note, my friend who is taking care of the car in my absence was driving it around after it was sitting for a week or so and got on it a bit while his friend was behind him, and apparently my car shot some flames. So my life is complete.
Good day.

Which is a shame because I noticed there was a missing post from you and was dying to see it. Oh well, hopefully I can get the car up here, get out to VIR with my GoPro and shed some insight on these things on a track. Just gotta find a shop back home that can do some stuff to the car since I wouldn't have time to do it myself AND drive up here in time for work 2 days later..
On the dyno's I don't want to discourge their posting, but based on what I see I would not purchase this product.
Too much high speed compression front and rear.(Not enough blow off after the knee).
Too much low speed compression on softer settings (knee should be pulled down)
Too light on rebound front and rear
Not rebound adjustable
All the above exists because either the adjustment system cannot deliver or the R&d that set the valving was not up to par. Either way, a non starter. Really what I'm seeing is typical in this price class. You get what you pay for, quality construction that avoids internal construction restriction's on valving and quality R&D that fixes what the setup guys don't get quite right (test and tune).

While not a attempt to dig the issue up, I thought your post had a interesting way of dancing around some rather serious engeering issues without really scoring any direct hits on the subject. No offence.
Anymore more updates or reviews on these coils. I see them on a few cars a Formula D and talked to different people about them all with positive feedback. Still saving up to buy them though
