Red face ATTN: Coilover owners

I own a set of cusco comp coilovers.


I purchased them used on this board...I know.. Anyways, one damper was blown in the front and I replaced it.

Now I am a bit confused and would like some feedback from other coilover owners. I have helper springs in the rear. They were mounted ABOVE the main spring (I am told that it doesn't matter where they are mounted). I've noticed that when the suspension UNLOADS, there seems to be a popping noise which sounds EXACTLY like a spring. I can't prove its the helper spring but it REALLY sounds like it might be. This also happens if the suspension loads REALLY quick...like on a BIG pothole. Most bumps are fine if taken at a reasonable speed. I checked the dampers in the rear and there are no signs of leaks..the rebound seems fine. I need some thoughts on this as I am SICK and tired of hearing this popping/spring noise..
