Time to choose new coilover

OK. I have been auto-x in hawaii region for 4 years now. And think it's time to get a bit serious. That being said, there are just soo many options out there right now. Let me run my current setup in a 2004 wrx wagon.
I have tein flex's with a custom spring rates of 10k fr./8k rear.
Our current track is small and tight, with overall times running in the 28-33 second range for the top 20 drivers.

So, we get to the good part. I don't know what my budget is right now, but i'd like to stay under $2k.
The current ones I"m looking at are the racecomp. eng. tarmac 2's,
and a new brand i've stumbled upon, without any info PIC Performance select series. I know nothing about them, but came across them on MAP perfomance, a vendor here on i-club.

Any and all help is much appreciated!!

He is totally right!! The guys at Race Comp are very informative and helpful peeps and some of the peeps in BAIC having nothing but high notes of their coilovers systems!! I've read in one of the Option mags that the Blitz Coilover system is highly comparable to the Cusco 2r's. I want to try them out but dont have that kind of cash flow.
