I ran Fortune Auto 500 for the past two and half years before upgrading them in April. The beauty in the Fortune Auto coil overs is they can be rebuilt and upgrade to whatever level you want them. The are built and based in the US as well. Also a couple of other critical items I left out:

- SPL Front upper A arms
- SPL rear camber arms
- SPL or SPC toe bolts

If you go true coilovers, which I did this last go around you will need SPL toe arms as well.

I am still on Fortune Auto coilovers, I just had serviced and upgraded to 510's and a true type setup. My spring rates are 14k front and 12k rear. I have not been to the track since the upgrade but the car seemed really settled on the Dragon.
