I agree but there is sortof a jump from the large factory bars to the aftermarket bars (for Abody) around .990
I can vouch for the KYBs being worse for the street even though they may have been a better match for the 1.03 bars - and I was autocrossing 6-12 events each year. My friend gave up on them for his SAAB as well.
What everybody needs if they are seriously driving these cars and a decent road handling is a front sway bar. That's really the one item I push (pun unintended).
I can't speak to the RCD Bilsteins out of personal experience because I went with SPAX, which were only $100 a corner and that was considered a bargin for performance shocks. Back when Koni reds were the only other somewhat available choice.
