Contacted QA1/Carrera techline and with the techs help and advice(Carter)after a good hour on the phone with him I went with his recommendation of using QA1 adjustable 5855 shocks with a 225# spring based on my cars frontend weight of 1375# weight.
He told me to try out the springs and if they felt too light or I experienced problems then to return them and go with a variable rate 225/450 spring.
He recommended the QA1 over the Carrera based upon my needs and the way I use the car basically I street drive, maybe track time once or twice a year, no auto X or drag strip.


Thanks for the help
