Still don't know when production versions will be ready. Working on valving with AST USA still right now. I'd like to be able to offer them available by mid-fall.

So these are a track focused coil correct?

Dual Purpose but definitely more performance based than aesthetic based.

Ill be posting up a full review once development is done, but will say that on the current valving and 9k+ rates, they ride better than stock on the street. ASTs new double digressing valving is very impressive.

Unfortunately I do not. I'll try and snap some pics later this month when I send them out for another revalve.

More information would be appreciated.

Sorry, but I'm unwilling to say much more until they are finalized. I hope you all understand. It's not fair for me to give you info based on versions of the product that will never be available.

Take your time and make them awesome. More track oriented please!

I was hoping and waiting (and saving money) for Penske or Ohlins to release a proper 2-way kit, then I started to realize they just might be out of reach for me. Availability and pricing is just not there. Having seen some of the literature for AST they seem to be in my performance/price range with their 4150's. Their 46mm double digressive piston and upgradability has really gotten me wet.
