if folks have suggestions on better ways to share this info please speak up. the racerlog wiki pg is close, but not perfect. the AwesomatixUSA parts bundles try to help folks decide things too.
for 2015 i think the parts at AwesomatixUSA will get "categorized" by a given car model "standard parts" and "optional parts". the existing Awesomatix site lumps a lot of the new stuff under "optional parts".

There are no detailed pictures yet, but the link below has the images from round 1 ETS. You really can not tell much, but the screws on the back of the dampers are gone.

But in what class...
We've tried some very different settings with the existing dampers and found some cool results. I was never able to get the spr01 to work.
I'd describe my current stock tc settings has having more pack/dampening (big A gaps) and very light spring (type 2 spr01s with big B gaps).

This is a good initial point to keep A-size settings within 0..3,5mm range at most conditions. It corresponds to ~350...500 cst oil range for traditional TC shocks.
Full 0...7mm range for A-size settings of our dampers (with 500 oil inside) corresponds to ~350...650 cst oil of traditional TC shocks.

Stock and modified class.
Hard spring are always faster than the soft (more cornerspeed)
