Judging from the pics i'm pretty sure the damper/strut bodies on the B8 are the same one's used in the B14 (except of course for the powder coating and fixed perches instead of threaded). Here's a pic of the front strut for the B14 vs OEM taken from my post install review:


From my observation it looks as if the length of the damper bodies themselves are almost the same as OEM, but the strut hub mounting point is higher up the body.
