What are you trying to achieve? Build a race car or track car or go road extreme? Per facebook you need to speak to Andy at APM or Joolz at kitsandclassics.
If you want to upgrade a road car then it comes down to your budget for shocks eg gaz, protech, nitron, ohlins, penske etc
Other mods include removal of arb. One or two (earlier) cerbs have made alterations to the rack to reduce bump steer. Maybe ask Brummie who runs a very fast LS cerb that is often out on tracks.
Andy at APM has built track versions of Cerbs.
Suspect Mike with his yellow race cerb has probably made more extreme changes.
There is of course the thread on here with the totally re-engineered cerb (with info coming from ex-roll centre learnings).

I run 650lb frony springs with 450 rears. Front with -3deg camber a bit of toe out, rear standard camber and Nitron dampers all round. Standard bushes all round with the rear ARB disconnected and it is about as hard as you would want on the road and great on track as well, very planted and predictable

Racing Cerbs are I think around 1000lb front springs and 650 or so rear with Intrax or Ohlin dampers, Andy at APM will be able to advise.

Aha got it now. You are after the wheel arch etensions per the 'Audi TT' styled cerb. then you would like a wider track and track/race biased set up.

If its that simple, I'd suggest Gaz Golds or Nitrons (budget depends which way you go) and have them set to fast track/road The Nitrons perform better with the same setup but either are more than enough for your requirements and they are massive improvement over standard.
