Default set up help

hi all.last night I took my new b5m out for its first run at surrey and hants astro track.the track is very flat with not ant bumps at all.i set up my car as per kit as a starting point but I used 35 weight oil up front and 30 rear.the car felt ok.rear grip very impressive the car did push a lot under power.basicly the car felt very soft and I need to stiffen it up.any suggestions as to what springs and oil I could try to stiffen it up a bit

I think your oils are probably ok that's what I run anywhere but it may not be the right choice for you, I'm currently trying out grey rear springs and white front, you could maybe try smaller holes in your Pistons if you want it stiffer.

I swapped to purple front springs at RHR, made the car the much easier to drive, helped with the grip roll too.
