I suggest that you or someone else from IPD call Bilstein and tell them that the rebound dampening is all wrong, way too stiff, and that if you are going to continue buying their shocks they need to change it.

I have talked to them and have been told that for a fee ( a ridiculous amount per shock ) they will change the valving on each shock I buy.

So I am going to be recommending and selling Carrera shocks, where they will valve them as I want for no extra $.

BTW, the bilsteins work great in my ES with 200 lb. rear springs and a bunch of parts in the back. But few people drive an 1800 or 122 setup like that.
