I agree with Jhill. Your tuning parameters is amplifying your problem. You previously stated several reasons led you to increasing damper stiffness. If the dampers are doing too much work and you increase the rate, i don't see how this is going to improve anything. You'll be increasing heat build up and making the rebound duration longer. This would lead to increase roll and sag in the rear which would initially feel unstable. Then after increased heat it will stiffen up and increase understeer.
Is it your opinion that if you remove damper stiffness that the car bounces more?
Is the car sagging more over bumps now with increased damper stiffness? Also are you experience bumpiness or bounciness?
The difference being bumpiness results in faster and harder body movement (less than 1hz) or bounce which is more of a longer wobble and roll?
What happens when you brake hard from say 80mph and then quickly slip off the brakes around 40-50mph? Does it snap back or slowly return with a bit of lag? Also at what speed do you feel bumps are the hardest? Greater than 70mph or below? During acceleration or cruising or braking?
