Message	I sent the shocks out and paid for independent shock dynos. I determined what valving to use, what case lengths, the design of the hardware/components. I fitted the coilovers and tested them daily driving on the streets for a period of 6 months (including a 2000+mi roundtrip from Texas to California for Zcon 2004), and worked them on the track. I had several people (including Mike Kojima, John Yim, etc) evaluate the valving/shock dyno and ride quality compared to the Tein coilovers and other shock/spring combos. I did my R&D on my coilovers. This is what you get with my product: our R&D, a proven history, and our tech support (believe me, there is more to setting up coilovers than bolting them on and setting ride height). FWIW.
