Bouncy how? 
Bouncy when your driving down the road, or bounce tested bouncy?

Sitting the 2 cars next to each other and comparing the 2 will give false
readings. The Bilsteins are "self adjusting" and change the rebound and
compression strokes accordingly where as the Tokiko's can be preset very
firm. 
Neuspeed revalves the Bilstein's they sell but I don't have any idea what
specs they change it to. HTH!
