They're still good dampers, and I know I'm averse to remote canisters but very few solutions are 'perfect' and with $3k+ on the line people like to be picky.
Also monkey does autocross, high compression at low damper speeds is prized, no aero, 245/255 200tw 'cheater tires' on 17x9, spring rates generally range from 300#-500#
Edit: it feels like mcs holds back their non remote damping to sell the remotes at higher prices since other companies can achieve more compression and more digression without canisters. And to be perfectly clear this is from the perspective of hunting for the very best shock you can get and being nitpicky, the non remotes are still good and are performing above my talent level. |
Okay, autocross speeds, spring rates/200tw. What Damper is he running that performs better?
Because on 225/40 x17 R7s (9" rim), 650# front, 700# rear, aggressive aero running road course - the 2WNRs are pretty dang smooth - IMO of course
Having driven my car and another similar setup on JRZs with remotes, there wasn't a hill of beans difference I could discern...
