Source for 200 lbs rear springs?

I'm looking for stiffer rear springs for my 914/4 race car. I have about 160s now and I don't think 180s will be enough. I'd like to go to 200s. Anyone have a source for anything stiffer than 180s?

Thanks!

Try www.shox.com - got my 200 lb'ers through Patrick Motorsports, but I think prices might be better at Shox.

I believe Renegade Hybrids mentioned something about having 200lb rear springs available.

I use 300# springs on the rear of my race car mainly to keep the inside front wheel down on tight corners since I use Goodyear slicks. I bought the springs and the adjustable Koni Sport shocks from Performance Porsche Parts and the springs can be ordered at any rate you want. The finely adjustable perches are great for corner balancing. Good luck.

David,
There is a set 200 lb springs currently on eBay.
