Default Omnipower vs Koni/GCs

What up heads!

Wellllll making an important decision. I'm about to slap on a set of coils to the ED but unsure which one. I've read and heard countless times from that Koni's are the better product. I just want to hear pro/cons about each of them. I'm not planning to race or really auto-x.. maybe auto once in a while. Just gimme some quick pro/con's on your view.

Bada

Ive own both set up before.
since youre wanting a street/auto cross set up. you can never go wrong with adjustables.
the Koni/GC combination is far better than the Omnipower setup. if the koni setup felt a bit too stiff, just take your **** and adjust them to where they need to be adjusted. vice versa..but the Omni was far too stiff. ive own the race setup from Omni and they were too stiff for my 89 hf.

from my point of view i say go for the KONI/GC setup. bit more pricey but well worth the money...

The Koni/Gc will win this because it's a better system, it's covered how and why so many times it's not even funny.

I wish I could send an e-kick-in-the-***** for people that don't even try.

I've been happy wit my Koni/GC setup. I got 430lb springs all the way around. I spend most of my time winding around mountain roads commuting to work. No complaints for the year they have been installed. I'm ready to see what they do on the track once I save up some money for some race tires and swaybars.

i would also take into consideration PIC's and AMR's.

both offer independent ride hight and preload adjustment.

AMR's are also made to order they make the shocks especially for you and your needs.

PIC's are $999 and AMR's are 1200 from Modernhonda.

both company's offer great customer service and great warranties.

both are designed for track use.

these are meant to be track driven and the companies both encourage track use.

this means that tracking your suspension doesn't void the warranty.

track use, realistically, isnt nearly as hard on suspension as daily street miles.

KONI/GC here!
