I've always read that linear is the best overall. I could be wrong.

What is a linear piston? Reads like marketing waffle. I have never read of "linear pistons" before.

I had not heard of linear dampers until I watched that video. As @Turdinator said, for tarmac ( ie street track race) digressive damping is wanted . And maybe you should look at Penske's regressive damping just to mess things up even more.

Linear damping would totally f*ck up your ride.

So when I ordered mine they didn't have them and they had to be made upon order from there factory in Taiwan and it took about a week from ordering to making it to my doorstep from Taiwan. So I was pretty happy with how fast I received them. Hopefully you will have a similar experience.

im sure all of their dampers are already preset and ready to go. all they do is probably just thread on the respective upper and lower mounts and call it "made to order" to sound more fancy than it really is lol.

i already double checked with the company im ordering from if they have them in stock and they do, ive learnt my lesson in checking if car parts are available as i waited 8 months for a front lip that said it was in stock but wasn't (different company)
