So you built the CO's and then just installed them on a customer car to check fitment? No testing?
What's the spring rate(s)?
What size is the shaft?
What kind of valving do you use?
Where are they made?
Are they re-buildable/re-valve-able?
Would you happen to have dyno print-outs of your damper?
TIA

as far as the ride goes, to be honest it feels wayyyyyyyy better than stock. i was going to go with the JIC's and glad i didnt. i got lucky with Migs @ B&G to hook me up with a set, i didnt tes it out right away cuz i wasnt feeling well yesterday, but today i was feeling a little better and played with the car a bit out in Deheasa an alpine's back roads. i set the suspension to as soft as it would go to the way to alpine and the ride quality is unbelievable, much better than what id imagine. then when i got to alpine i adjusted the suspension to all the way hard, it sill felt very good but def. stiffer. so i went all out on the backroads and it just felt so good. when all the way hard the back end comes around just perfectly, doesnt push through the turns anymore. B&G coilovers def won me over so far. this friday we are going drag racing and on the 18th and 19th we are going auto Xing so we'll se what happens and ill keep u guys posted
some more pix for u guys:

No offense, but if this is how they test their product, then they don't test their product.

I don't get that statement. This coilover isnt specific to the X so how else would they test? Should they purchase every applicable vehicle?
