Yea, these ones are really nice. The guys over at Mynes Performance did their homework and had these valved specifically for the evo's aluminum hood so opening and closing is smooth and silk. Make sure you break the seal a few time on the ground/wall prior to installing them so they have the seals broken in 
I had the old model gruppe-s dampers on my car before and these things are night and day difference!
