Default Prototype Electro-Magnetic Shocks (dyno graphs)

Test results from a prototype in 2010 looked promising:

This is a small shock manufacturer that I work with in Asia. We shock dyno tested the prototype for a professor. We will be attempting to produce them for Honda's... This is basically the same technology as found on Ferrari 599 and such. See:

The force-velocity plots make it look like it has variable slope low speed damping (good), but that's because it is another one of those useless dyno plots with 3 data points. The force-displacement plots show that it is a fixed slope variable blowoff damping, characteristic of many MR shocks (bad).

Also, make sure you don't violate any of the patents that Lord Corporation has spammed.
