Bilstein vs KYB Gas-A-Just

hey everyone, I am in the marketing for some shocks. I was wondering which shocks would you suggestion that I should get? Should I either get the bilstein shocks or the KYB Gas-A-Just shocks? I don't autocross but I do go to the drag strip sometimes. Mainly I like handeling for the street and also good for the drag strip. I just want to have a all around shock that is good. Any suggestions and recommendations would be greatly apprecaited. Thanks in advance.

KYBs are a 'stock replacement', and wont have the lifespan or performance of a Bilstein, nor the warranty, nor the rebuild/revalve option.

Bilsteins are cheap now I'd pick those of the two, but for drag suggestions this is the wrong forum.

IO have KYB fas adjust in the front and they are pretty damn stiff, i think they are a little too stiff for drag racing... but I have pretty shot rear shocks, poly torque arm bushing, and 21 mm rear sway and cut 2.0 60's, in a v6.
