Rear spring 800lbs

Where can i buy 800lbs rear spring since my car feel like a big boat.

Currently running pss10 coilover.

Loose against golf r and civic type r on track. What a shame.

Investing in some instructor given performance driving lessons first sounds like a better idea.

yeah i have about 10 years of track experience, i've just realised how fast the golf r and civic type r can steer way quicker than my boat... also their boost engine come out quicker from the apex vs lack of torque from my S65 ...

I was on Mont-Tremblant track this friday which is one of the nicest track in the world.

will contact them. Wondering what's the rear spring lenght . In front i'm currently running 70-170 kw spring which is 400lbs spring i think. Will upgrade to 500lbs in front and 800 in rear.

They'll probably have that information and give you options.. they're really good.. they got my springs to me in less than 2 weeks too!
