So I'm stuck with STIFF and no fun in being able to dial in my preferred handling.
B6 (heavy duty) is meant to be used with stock springs i think...but is the only shocks that has adjustable dampening.
It seems it is always a battle between Koni's or Bilsteins. Are there anything else worth going for if looking for shocks?

i think you can get a decent coilover (revalved bilstein/gc combo) for just above that price. what you need to do is throw adjustability out the window. that is really expensive and in my opinion, more a luxury than a necessity. a shocks job is to control the spring. your springs should have a static rate. if a spring isnt adjustable, the shock doesnt need to be adjustable. besides, the reduction in lap times from spending 1.5k more on shock is not as big as the reduction in lap time from spending 1.5k on track time
