I guess the 1g dsm that beat out ferraris in socal road racing speed unlimited class using JICs was an idiot. He should switch to something else.....because you said it was junk.....

Yes, JIC is junk. Their service is awful, their dealer network is awful, and the product is awful - and if it breaks or want a revalve, you're going to be up the creek. I've also been in a car with JIC's and it handled like ass.

I could go further, but I'm not going to waste anyone's time.

No, I've never heard of them, and if you could provide some sort of info on them I'd like to read up on it.
When people say "high end" when you talk about suspension then you are going to get into the $400 and up per damper price point - and your options are Koni 3011 or 2812's, Moton, Penske, JRZ, Mugen N1, etc... they have established dealer networks and everything you buy is going to be custom valved for your application, spring rate, etc... no off the shelf solutions. Then you will need to consider the testing/tuning required to dial in a high-end setup, which most people do not have the time, budget, tires, Data Aq and often trackside support to do - I know that I sure dont have the $$ to go through 2-3 sets of tires and several test days just to dial in a set of dampers.
