Confused about shock pistons. DEX210

[danny the elfman]

Hello. Im looking at setups and have a very similar shock set up to this http://www.petitrc.com/setup/durango...we20111113.pdf which is almost the same as every other one ive found for the style of track. Problem is that on those set-ups they tend to run 3x1.6mm holes on there pistons. And I use 6x1.2mm which is considerably softer, but I still have one of the local clubs stiffest suspension set-ups. So just double checking i'm reading that correctly? I'm in two minds about changing my set up going the opposite to everyone else. What would you do? Thansk
