Chris isn’t exaggerating.  The impact on my ‘82 RS was significant. It had old school “progressive” springs in it prior, which is no comparison to the emulator set up in performance. 

The “guts” of your /6 forks are different than the ‘82, but I have no reason to believe you won’t see a similar improvement in handing.
