I've recently had Intrax coilovers fitted. The reason I went that way was that Intrax makes them to your requirements, and I didn't want to lower the car anywhere near as much as most coilovers do (30 mm minimum usually). I went with the 1K2, which has the option of a hardened, low friction coating, and the anti-roll control system. Get the lot and they are about 4000 euro, without those there are about 2300 euro from memory. With fitting you can spend > $7k. For that you get 30 clicks of adjustment that actually work based on the dyno plots and feel. The hard end is extremely stiff for road use, and I will be getting softer springs fitted to suit my tastes. Annecdotally, such as on the Far North Racing website (Autocross To Win), you'll see a fair bit of commentary on the cheaper adjustable dampers giving dyno results that are counter to what the adjustment is claimed to do. I can't compare the Intrax with any other, and there was a clearance problem with the rear anti-roll bar mount that my suspension shop had to fix, but if you really want bump and rebound adjustment that does what it claims to, or specifying your own ride height, then Intrax is worth considering.
