one thing i noticed in passing at the weekend is the spring on the firestorm shock is wound tighter at the top (i think progressive) so if you were to use an off the shelf replacement spring you will need to make a new platform for the top a simples laser cut 5mm ring ought to do it thus allowing the spring to seat correctly at the top. should then just be able to swap for suitable poundage spring and wind the preload off a bit but it might also give a little more preload ??
the new springs ive located come in at £25 is so about the same as ive paid for the shocker itself even if i have to replace all four springs i think im still under half what it would have cost me for the gaz coilovers
