you should see what some cars do in stock series autox (in which they can only change: dampers, tires, and front sway bar); dampers are the single most important piece of suspension on a vehicle.

When i get the shocks installed, they are going to be evaluated by a professional race driver with alot of experience. He is very familiar with koni's and suspension tuning, and is the owner of Seat-Time.com as well. We may also get a Rolex Sports Car drivers input as well, his name is Leh Keen. I will have a full review and write up for you guys that are interested.

also, the tokico rep i have been in contact with is trying to get ground control on board with us, so then we have literally unlimited spring options.

I am really excited about these shocks, they are going to be pretty sweet :D
