GP Suspension?

Just curious, does the GP use stock JCW springs/dampers, or something else? If so, I'm assuming it uses the softest of the JCW springs. Any GP geeks out there who have checked the parts numbers to determine this? Also, what about the sway bars?

Ok, I'll bite
To the best of my knowledge, (read disclaimer)
The GP has stock Cooper S sway bars and the springs
are standard JCW.

Hang tite there Alfa and I may have mine up in the air this weekend. I'd be curious to know too. I think at the back end the aluminum trailing arms from the 07s changed some mounting points too but I have only been under the car a couple of times.
