It's funny you should say that because that is Ohlins story today, but it wasn't last year (see below). When purchasing I wanted to lower my car approximately a half an inch and then have a little room to allow for corner balancing. This platform is front left heavy so a corner balance makes a gigantic difference.
At the time I really didn't think there was going to be any issues with bump travel and I didn't really know enough to look at the stack height of the plates. That's kinda why I'm sharing this info because I don't want someone else to run into the same issues I did. I did take a long hard look at MCS but those are 100% race inspired and the valving is not street friendly. They will even tell you that when you ask about compliance. The reason they aren't bottoming out is because they are valved hard enough to chip your teeth (they also have remote reservoirs that provide additional stroke). Bad news for those of us running low profile 20" wheels as tire pinching is a real problem even with the stock magride shocks. MCS would make that an every week situation.
Looking back I know that at least 75% of my issue was caused by the Vorshlag plates. The other 25% was lack of R&D on Ohlins part. On other platforms they are simply fantastic shocks and with the grassroots modifications mentioned above I'm absolutely certain I could make them work. That being said today I committed to be a test mule for the JRI coilovers. If interested I'd be happy to keep folks up dated on that solution though it might be overkill for most.
