There is an excellent reason why "dude" over here is already on my ignore list. Although there are douches(singular) I'm not "allowed" by the system to add to ignore list.

I think the price is somewhere in the vicinity of If you gotta ask, you can't afford them.

It's probably going to be fairly close to a set of Penskes for any other car. I don't want to speculate on here, but prices are published... This shouldn't be a surprise. They're going to be expensive, but they're going to be worth it.

Well, I recall seeing some rather "affordably priced" sets of Penskes for the Mustang before. I expect these to be on a different price bracket than those. Considering Raceng is also adding their pieces to the kit, I wouldn't doubt that will bring the price tag up even more.

My 3-way Penske shock cost me $1400, roughly. So multiply that by 4 were talking $5600. A similar 2-way shock will run for about $1000 a piece. So $4000 for a set of 4. I seriously doubt this set will be anywhere close to that. A set of 4 for the S2000 can be had for less than $5000, as reference. http://performanceshock.com/index.ph...oducts_id=1220

I would imagine race teams would depending on the series they are running and what the requirements are for it.

If they're perfect, who needs to adjust?

What's the main advantage or disadvantage of the dual-bleed adjuster in the 8365 compared to the 8760? It's only $13.33 difference between the 2 models.

8365: For the proper race car with little to no rubber in their suspension, a dual-bleed adjuster can be a very powerful tuning tool as it only affects rebound or compression completely independently and only changes forces in the 0-3 in/sec range. This adjuster mechanism is on the majority of kits we sell from the Continental Tire series upto F1. Its the type of adjuster that adds to our reputation due to the feeling the drivers get from it and the consistency with each click. The remote reservoir has one ("low speed") bleed adjuster which can lead to increased hysteresis when set to full hard. Obviously once you're out to full hard you should rebuild the shock so you can be set to a softer setting and still have the force levels you want without the hysteresis.

The 8760 basically has 1/2 of the dual-bleed adjuster (cheaper) and an additional high speed adjuster in the remote head valve (more expensive). So the price balances out. You end up with 1 rebound bleed adjuster and 2 high/low speed compression adjusters.

So kind of like the TTX in performance?
