Some first impressions:
Ride quality is VERY compliant for my tastes, and I'm on 500/650 springs. I drove on some rough roads and my butt says that it's only about 35% more harsh than OEM.
There's very little dive when I brake hard. This is probably caused by a couple of things though. The tires weren't fully warmed up (Dunlop DII), and XP10 pads lock up the rotors very quickly even when they're cold.

What are your current comp/rebound settings? I set mine at 3 comp and 2 rebound right now, needs more rebound I still, maybe one more comp click too, I need to mess with it more but it handles the rates good so far.
I lowered the car about 10mm or so... a little less up front, need to corner balance it eventually.
These dampers don't have as much rear bump as I would like, the rear dampers are about halfway from fall droop to bumpstops currently.
