Why would you replace the original suspension with spax?

The lotus sport bilsteins were specifically designed for the car and are a pretty decent damper. Admittedly spring rates are a bit soft for hard track use, but I would suspect, overall on an exige s, they will be far better than spax.

I agree with Andrew’s comment above.

Surely an upgrade from standard is either Ohlins or Nitrons?

Why did you change to Spax and what spring rates have you gone for? The Lotus Sport Ohlins upgrade uses 325 lb front and 425 lb rear. Not sure on the original spring rates.

Some Geo setup information form SELOC is available here
