Default Callaway coilovers vs Phadt coilovers ??

Has anyone had enough experience with both Callaway / Eibach coilovers and Phadt coilovers to make a comparison? I know that the Callaways retain the original leaf springs while the Phadts do not use any leaf springs. I am wondering what will be best for autocross and street driving. Anyone?

P.S. I am running a C5 coupe with Z06 suspension and poly bushings.

Adding to the confusion, I love my HardbarUSA Penske 8100 dual-rate coilovers. Great on the street, haven't managed to get them on track yet. Curious how they'd affect classing for the NCCC autox. :-) The Penskes aren't the cheapest, but they're really nice and livable on the street and just get better and better the more you lean on them.

Here's a link to a recent thread comparing coil-overs. Several of the vendors got involved. It may leave you even more confused but I think it's worth reading.
