Does anyone know the differences between this Vishnu/Gerrard setup and the other Ohlin packages from Mueller and Works (price, spring rates, damping level, etc.)? I want to buy a set of Ohlins but don't know which to get.

BTW I want a streetable autox setup. Before you guys get worked up, I know that spring rates for nationally competitive autox setups can be 900lbs. I want something that will work well for autox but not knock the fillings out of my teeth on the street.

Thanks

IMO, just the fact that Paul's setup doesn't require a larger rear swaybar makes them very attractive.

Working on it right now... still. Besides, Ohlins is completely out of stock right now. They don't expect to have anything for another few weeks.

Thanks for the update. I'm curious why just Ohlins, though, especially if supply is a concern? Wouldn't KW Variant 3's be in the same league in terms of price and performance?

It's all the propriatary bits and peices and R&D that we done for the Ohlins that keeps us using them, a switch would involve a lot of re-testing and because of the internals I don't think anything would be as good for the money.
