I cannot comment about the feel vs. the PS setup as I've never experienced them first hand (or second hand for that matter). I came from the OEM sport setup that started to get pretty sloppy at the 180k km mark. Did a pretty comprehensive suspension refresh at that time. You can see the parts I threw at it in my garage pics. I went with the Koni yellows + prokit springs for their drop while maintaining great comfort and drivability. I've put nearly 100k on this setup and its still going strong. I was very happy with how much of an improvement this setup was vs. the OEM sport setup with regards to harshness. It was more comfortable yet handled and looked way better. I've done over 15 HPDE on this setup too and it's held up very well. Some people bitch about the progressive nature of the spring setup when tracking but I can't tell. I find the car VERY capable on the track and I'm not left wanting more out of my suspension (stickier tires on the other hand). I've heard that you can have Koni tune their shocks to specific spring combos if you buy direct from them, I'm not too sure how much more that would be but might be worth checking out.
