PP Sachs shock assembly pictures -- anyone have it?

I've been searching for some time, and I am trying to get clarification...

Are the Sachs dampers on the Performance Package the same dimensions as the regular shocks? Specifically, the front struts, are they the same?

I know the STI dampers are different than regular BRZ Showa shocks. The STI dampers are same as the Showa Tuning Evolution series, and (most likely) are probably both made by Showa.

Any help is appreciated.

Alex

Are the PP dampers slightly longer at the bottom?

looks the same total length but the strut mount flange is a different design so it looks longer.
