I have 180 lb springs and Koni Sports all around. Stock toothpick sized sway bar up front. What would be the first thing you would do...
1. Put in a 22mm Sway Bar
2. Put in 22mm Torsoin bars

What size and type of tires are you running?
To stay in stock class in PCANW you can run 60 series tires.
No one will look at the 180lb springs.
People will look at larger than stock sway bar.
People will look at your shocks which are ok in stock.
Generally, the combo is 22mm sway bar, 22 tbars, 180 springs, no rear bar(disconnected), 205x50x15's tires of a sticky compound(Kuhmo Victoracers or a street one). This set up sticks you in GTU which is a tough class. Not running at the very bottom is good, running in the middle means you are doing good, running in the top five means you are smokin or dreaming in your sleep.
Build a balanced car that you can drive both in the right class for you and for on the street. If you haven't noticed the streets in Seattle suck!
Get the car aligned and corner balanced after you decide and set the car up. Don't keep making changes just drive and drive the car to get as much seat time. Then next year change it for the class you want to compete in and how you want the car to drive and feel.
