Red face What is the difference between M-Sport and Sport Suspension?

I currently have the sports suspension which is inadequate for my style of driving.I saw some m-sport springs for sale on the forum and was wondering what the difference was between them.

My mothers car is a non-M sport, mine is... Compared all springs and shocks, they all have the exact same numbers and stamps on them.

Same thing, only real difference would be in sport/m-sport springs off 2011+ models which supposedly used linear springs.

It's the dampers that are insufficient, mostly anyways.

Thanks for the help guys. Anyone knows of a cheap aftermarket coil over setup i could get which would provide a lowered ride height and superior handling?
