I've had both as well. I'm thinking my Ohlins either need spring upgrading or I need to pull them and go back to the clubsports. They are simply too soft for track use, and the body roll is about the same as stock which causes the car to push. It's fine on the street and the handling is great there, but when you throw R-comps on it they are overwhelmed by grip. I suppose if you had sway bar upgrades, this would help with the body roll, but not resolve it. The other issue is that when you brake hard on slicks (I also have a BBK), there's too much weigh transfer forward which causes instability. So gamble ~$700 on springs, or go with what works out f the box...hmm choices.
