Default C4 2014 autox suspension setup Looking for advice.

For the 2013 year i came in second overall with 4 wins out of the 5 i ran with this car. (89 vert with super ram 383)

2013 setup was ( this pushed just a little at the limit)
Spring
F 115.5
R 87.5 (The jacking was addressed by keeping spare tire and minimizing rear ride height to be +1/4" higher then the front)

Sway
F 26t
R 22S

Purposed 2014 setup
Springs
F 115.5
R 57.2

Sway
F 32S
R 26S (ride height will be 1/2" greater then front)

Alignment for both years will be

F -2.5 Camber +3/16 Toe out
R -1.5 Camber 1/16 toe in

With this setup i can ditch the extra weight from the spare and assembly. I am also striping the interior and removing the headlight assembly's, a/c setup and audio, ect..

I guess i'm wondering if i'm being a jackass by going from what was clearly a working setup for me and trying to improve.

Call Sam Strano @stranoparts.com? He can get you sorted out in the right direction. Both of my Corvettes were/are Strano cars.
