I'm sure people will have differing opinions but I ran Fortune Auto 510 Coilovers on my "1M clone" track car after running MCS 1WNR. This was ~3yrs ago and I've definitely improved as a driver since then but my lap times didn't change after moving from MCS.
FYI - The reason I moved to FA Coilovers is that I won a set at a Time Attack race and wanted to see how they performed... Needless to say, I was shocked and decided to keep them and sold the MCS - I do run MCS 1WNR now on my E92.
Honestly, there are tons of good single adjustable shocks out there that aren't $4k+ (PSS10, FA510, Feal, TCKline, ST XTA or KW) - Personally, I'd go for a set of Fortune Auto 510 with custom rates for $2.2k with camber plates if I wasn't such a track rat. They're monotube, known to perform well on track and use similar features seen in Ohlins R&T. My last set lasted 25+ events with 5-10k miles and never leaked or had any issues before I sold the car.
