Question Bilstein Insert/Bogi Strut - Koni custom valving ?

I have an 87 911 and want to update the suspsension to the following

23 & 31 mm Sander torsion bars
27 mm Smart Racing sway bars
Bilstein custom valved shocks.

Needless to say, this update is not cheap.

Presently, I have Koni shocks and Boge inserts. Koni will custom valve its shocks, but I don't have the numbers for that and don't know where to get them.

If I change to a Bilstein, I understand that Bilstein will make an insert for a Boge strut, but that the shock will not work on a race setup because there is not enough suspension travel for the shock. Has anyone tried this. Or does anyone have any thoughts on this. My goal is to not have to pay for new Bilstein front struts and new shocks. But so far this looks like my only option

Thanks in advance.
