Subd.

Someone has to know the height were things start to bind or another word if I'm using it wrong, we're going to low starts to hurt the travel of parts. We need someone like in the subi community with RCE where they would dyno (not a HP dyno) a car with their springs and they had all the computers and travel info and such to see what worked best.

I do know, unless you build new spindle arms like we saw that one company do, normally you don't go very low because of the binding issues. Somewhere in the 1/2" area maybe. Every car is probably different though. For example RCE refused to make a "lowering spring." They wanted a performance spring. So 10mm and 15mm drop were your only choice. Any lower and you'd hurt performance vs help it.
