I need some guidance on Shock upgrade, I have Eibach Pro-Kit Bilstein sports and RD Sways, I do a lot of Track events and am still driving to and from (trailer for the R comps). I lose the mostly mid corner response I seem to be pumping on the sways on long turns like 1&2 at Sebring. Do I just need more rebound Damping or would D/A allow me to dial in a little more compression. I would like to only change rears now, I am adjusting camber on rear with shims to get tire temps and grip right, I will go with full coil-overs one day. Spindle shims give me the Camber I need on the front to control push on corner entry and also tire temps. Can I go D/A on rear with no adjustment on front, as hard as I try I cant trail brake mostly because of soft shocks I think...Advice please.

You REALLY need double adjustables. Based on what you are saying, you have a serious lack of rebound control. Compression adjust will also be of great benefit.

Thats what I thought, will I be creating any balance problems right away if I start with rears and do fronts later or do you not recommend doing this. I'm Curious does more spring rate need more compression damping or less, if I get D/A rears will they be dynoed for the springs I have now and need to be revalved with each spring change or will there be a range that will allow me to change some springs. I have read as much as I can on this and somehow this is not clear to me. I apreciate your time..
