What is the best "bang for your bucks" on coil overs have looked at JRI a friend just put some on his ride and was impressed had koni on my last car and they work great after Shane at Chassis Solutions worked them over so whats out there

Afco buy your junk don’t need the best.

I'd love to have Dave's car.

Dave’s a douche and if you’d love to have his car, you’d give everything to have mine.

The AFCOs on my car have been flawless, same set of shocks on the TD as were on the bracket car and have never had any issues or had to send them in. Would not hesitate in buying another set of AFCOs for any car

I like AFCO shocks but I would call Shane at Competitive Suspension Solutions484-529-3501 and ask him what he recommends. I have not used him but I think probably best to talk to someone who knows what they are talking about.

Typical clueless reply from this fucing idiot^^^ recommending a company he has no first hand experience with

If I don’t need Shane’s service none here with a door car needs it!

Thank you Tony sorry but vette is sold. Will be rebuilding Rick Butlers 67 Nova and sharing driving with him and his son next year. as far as mr. ego big head little dyke 1290-who cares-lol yes been looking at Afcos

There’s nothing else to look at douche

Meanwhile you contribute nothing here but hate and jealousy and should thank me for replying or you’d only have 2 replies answering your question so far and of course they agree with me.

Standard Afco DA's will get you in the 4's, maybe faster. I have a customer that runs mid 4's with a daily street driven stock wheel well radial thats on Afco's with external canisters. I may try a pair of JRI's on my Cobalt when I start spraying, but I'll talk to someone first.

Another they agrees

Afco is a gas emulsion damper, that's a positive. There's lots of development ongoing, so obviously they have the capacity to operate with lots of different valving.

The difference between a high end damper like Ohlins or Penske is in the canister, there is a separating piston, not a gas bag, which is a higher technology design.

Piggy back LMP ohlins (separating piston design) is in line price wise with a tricked out Afco, have a look at those vetman.

Excellent.

Retard you continue to talk about shyt you think you know when in fact you’re clueless! No one here needs a “tricked out” Afco least of which is the douche that started this thread snd ohlin is far leading in drag shock technology.

Penski in both door cars.

That's a high end damper same as Ohlins. Both will have a separating piston in the canister.

I'd be happy to take it apart to show the difference, if we can get AFCO owner to do the same.

I've tuned many of these through text messages and emails.

One member here shared the results, 7 timeslips, 3 thousandths difference in the 7 timeslips, 8 second short wheelbase car.

Don't know what your combo is but AFCO's are a good shock, not the best but good. Shane has taken a job at Maple Grove so the word on the street is he isn't doing shocks anymore.

When you by a shock(s) from anyone you should provide them with the combo and where the shock is mounted to the rear end ( in front, on top or behind). The position can impact the valving required along with the spring rate!

Higher end shocks such as JRI Penske etc do pay off once you have enough power to take advantage of them vs AFCO's.

He doesn’t!

So you can go 1.27 60ft with a n/a 23 degree sbc on a 10" tire 3200 lbs, when no one else can?

Hmmmm, that is interesting

I heard you guys were at the Fling! Pete puts on a great race. You board? LOL

BTW I keep seeing an Ignored Post by Mike Retread showing up on many posts,,, you know this guy?

You’re one of the few that actually use the ignore option, most here say they are doing it and never do, they live for the drama!

We are at the Fling and no not bored. Nothing boring about watching Kyle and Donovan Williams racing, 3 times over the last 3 days and they’re both still in.
