Default Regular Bilstein and SLP Bilstein, what's the difference?

I've read that there is a diffference. Can someone give me a good explanation and what I'd gain by having one of the two, I hear that the SLPs are revalved or something of the sort.

SLPs are softer.

Front SLPs have more rebound and less bump than regular HDs. The rears are just HDs.

Thanks guys, so this could be an option if I want to soften things up a bit?

I think their basically valved to give a ride similar to the HDs with the stock springs. The Eibachs are stiffer, so less bump, making bumps a little less jarring, and more rebound to control them on the way back up.
