You can auto x. The DX/LX is more competitive in its class than the Si is in its class. Meaning, you will have a better chance at winning in a DX/LX than an Si.

well i called them today, they seem to think the standard setup will allow for a 0-3 inch drop all around, like they are unaware of this situation...so will they fix the standard setups too i guess is what i'm wondering? does it costs more to order a different spring size?

You can choose your sizes from the start..Probably a lower option and a stock to whatever drop tbd.... Not from GC but their setup absoutly does pop rear springs out, and the new one will utalize Eibach springs.

Well I was thinking the same thing...is Redshift doing this as an add on, or is Ground-Control actually making the change?

Yeah you can just tell us when the solution is released We will offer a couple different setups so you can decide on ride height spring rates, ETC..

Gotta include the single adjustable konis so it would be basically a coilover kit...Think similar to tein basics, then the Double adjustables are more SS's...BUT obviously both better setups YE koni's in 2-3 weeks..
