I have bilstein HD's with GC 450/375 springs. Now that I have that much grip in my future, am I likely to need more spring and damper? Is it time to fork over the coin for Tein Flex or something else for a similar price?

Don't fix what ain't broke. Run it and see if it works for you 1st! As much as Emilio has my respect and is vastly more knowledgeable than myself, I'm not 100% sold on the Teins. There's a number of guys here that aren't thrilled with them. Could be a matter of the set up and adjustments but....
I'd send those Bilsteins off for a revalve (fatcat?), move the 450's to the rear and go 650-700 in the front.

I drove Johnwagz' car and I was impressed. I'd also like to have the adjustability because I'm driving at a level right now where I can use the adjustments.
The FCM revalve is almost as much as flex, and still not adjustable.
I guess I need to relax and get the car on the track though...I might be fast enough on them. However, I'm going to need more spring.
