But when it does that it normally means that the cable is broken.

That link
And to stop bouncing i think it would be because the springs your using are not the correct poundage for the heavy 2.0 engine

Ah right. Clocks out, unclip. Gearbox with spanner undo. Tie the new one to the old one and pull through the bulk head. And fit both sides.
What suspension set up do you have?

As FruitBooTeR said, the springs are not the correct poundage for the heavy 2.0 engine.

Then your dampers sound like they are ok.
Give Dave A a ring. He'll get some made up for your car with the 2.0 engine in.
