mini cooper s r56 chilli pack suspension

hello,
I would like to ask you some questions about suspension on my mini cooper s

1) my car has sport suspension (it came together with chilli pack) with no lower height. Its black with 2 orange stripes in front no stripes on back springs. Is that sport suspension ?

2) its time now to change suspension and i am thinking to put the new koni special active (fsd technology) with the same springs that i have or if i could find the sport springs from jcw (red colour that lower the car only 1cm). Any recommendations?

I don't remember the spring colors, for me easiest way to confirm the sport suspension is to look at the label on the shocks. They will say 'Sport' or 'Cooper S'. Either way, the Koni shocks will likely be a nice improvement for you. I would swap out to a larger rear sway bar at the same time.

Have fun,
Mike
