Question suspension upgrade?

I have searched and found the upgrade to PSS9 is very very popular but wondered if anyone had gone the JIC way which appears better for use on the track and just as good for street use.

JIC is supposed to be very, very good, but more expensive.

We sell both PSS9's and JIC suspensions. The JIC's are more expensive, and are really set up for a tracked car. We do a lot of PSS9's on the 996 C2/4, and a lot of JIC setups on the TT's. The PSS9's tend to bounce off the bump stops on the TT's for some reason, which is why we mainly use the JIC's on them. The JIC's have 15 settings IIRC, where as the PSS9's have 9.

Is your car a daily driver, a dedicated track car, daily with occasional tracking, daily with a lot of tracking, etc....this will help determine exactly what you need.

Seems like the JIC's are a little too stiff for some and the PSS9's too soft for the track. Any other ideas. I am leaning towards the JIC solution as the roads in my part of the world are pretty good and I do very little city driving.
