My mate has Koni yellows with -40mm springs, soon to be -60mm G-Max springs. The car runs about 280bhp and handles pretty well... Could get FK if you really thing you need all that height adjustment crap.

so would i have to change my kit, or would they cope. for the time being. obv it would be better to change from apex asap but just wondering if i definatly need to change to cope with the weight of the c20let.

You could get away with just lowering springs... 2.0 16v engine and gearbox is about 300kg I think.

I have standard GSi shocks and springs on my XE and it's lovely and comfy.

Wouldn't it be better to stiffen the ride up a bit? Suppose it depends on how hard ya want to push the car into roundabouts really
