BTW I drilled 1mm holes in the shock cap.
Ok. I think you'll have the white membranes in the 2.0 kit. These were always an issue to get less rebound on as the membranes were quite deep and stiff. The 11mm is fine as the actually shock travel when installed and racing isn't that much and you won't find any issues. The best way to get the least amount of rebound is use a 2mm caster clip on the shock shaft, overfill the body with oil. Install the cap almost all the way tight with the shaft fully extended. Push the shaft in slowly and let the oil escape. Hold the shaft against the clip and tighten the cap. That should work.
