i used to think that revalved bilsteins were the way to go. i would never have bilstien do the revalving but places like stewart development or fac cat motorsports really know what they are doing. when i got my first ride in a miata with some ast suspension my mind was blown. i could almost make a blind guarantee that they are better than the mugen spoon products but that would be stupid of me. i think the moral of the story is just go with what you know is winning races. ohlins seems to make car products with limited travel but an otherwise amazing product. i dont know how bilsteins just last forever. once you get into that penske, vorshlag, koni race level im sure its just a matter of personal favorites
