The information comes from several verbal discussions some friends of mine have had with Koni engineers.

The most obvious issue is in rebound damping. Koni increases it arbitrarily, as do most other aftermarket shock manufacturers, and track testing of the CSVT shows that this is the wrong way to make the car faster. What it does do, is it makes the car "feel" like it is way more tightly controlled, when in fact, its TOO tightly controlled and not letting the tire do everything it can for grip.

I'm not trying to be argumentative, just to understand/qualify the data you're presenting.
No sweat, no offense taken. I'm just having difficulty explaining some of this, because I really don't want to badmouth parts that people have on thier cars, and some of the knowledge involved for this specific application is not something I want to share publicly . . .
