Did you have a sub or something in the rear, I heard that can cause some bounce.

I went through the same thing when I had QA1's on my car.

For the street:
Rear, full soft to 2 clicks from full soft.

i had them set at 6 all around, and what i did was go to 9 in the rear and left the fronts alone. made a big difference

cant wait to get it scaled and dialed in for the track

thanks for the input
