use the Search Function and search 'damptronic' - lots of good info
summary - you can also do it yourself if you send the shocks for a re-valve to Bilstein - search 're-valve' and lots of good stuff comes up as well
the b16s / damptronics for the gt3 cars come with a 340# front spring - the rear is 550# - actually softer than stock - the front is basically the only difference

I have run the B16 Damptronic. The spring rates are close to stock except the stiffer front which helps eliminate nose dive under hard braking.
I find the shocks to be stiffer then stock however. About as stiff as one would want for street. (bare in mind i have only used them with GMG sway bars which also stiffen the ride)
For track they can handle slicks as they become a little softer under load with a grippy tire.
Stock shocks tend to become too soft under the load that a slick can produce.
All round a decent dual purpose shock, however i have not been able to compare it to other aftermarket examples., especially adjustables which you can dial according to track you are on.
