What exactly would it be? Something like we send in our oem struts to get gutted and rebuilt with Eibach internals?

Non Adjustable / Performance Valving $799.99 shipped
Adjustable (Waiting for tech data) $1249.99 shipped

These would be the options through Eibach, completely new units.

Any idea what the KONI option goes for? I know the no-longer-available Ohlins fixed perch were in the 1700 range.

I'm afraid I'm not sure as I'm trying to find a way to do this without having to install inserts.

if at all possible having a shortened strut body (even non-adj) would allow far more suspension travel when adding lowering springs.

it would be great to get that confirmation from eibach

nice. I vote for the non adjustables. Would be great to have another option for the evo. I had wanted to get the ohlins fixed perch setup but was told they no longer produce them.

It's certainly possible, I will keep that in mind should we figure out how to move forward.
