That was one reason I went with Tokico adjustables (Illumina5) when I
installed them on my track/autocross A2 GTi. The Tokico's had their problems
though, I had a number of failures (all PARTS covered by warrantee, labor
mine. Got good enough to change out a rear within 1/2 hour in any
conditions. By myself) AND
they were a terrible match to the stock springs (my competition was SCCA
Solo2 stock, so I HAD to run stock springs). The shocks were MUCH too firm
for the stock springs, so everything was overdamped (at least not
critically, for those in the engineering profession!). Made for a pretty
rough ride. Ultimately proved to myself that a competitive stock class car
really wasn't stock, nor too streetable. Recent experience with more up to
date shocks  has the potential to disprove this concept. Hopefully.
