Koni or Bilstein or KYB or ???
Hi, I would like to buy some really good dampers (to use it for streetrace + drag).

Now I know about 4 possibilities:
1, Koni single adjusted
2, Koni double adjusted
3, Bilstein (I'm not sure what type)
4, KYB - AGX


Which one should I choose?
Are there any other, better dampers?

Thanx Marauder

I believe the best drag shock would be HAL's, also the most expensive though of course.

I can't find Bilstein HD's. I have found these only (http://www.slponline.com/view_produc...RTNUMBER=70008), is that right?
Is there any online shop, where I can buy Bilsteins HD ?

Thanx Marauder
