I prefer the tokico 5 ways, cheaper, easier to adjust than Koni's and lifetime warranty as well. I've run that setup for a looooong time with no issues. Kyb suuucks and are way to prone to blowing out so just keep it to koni or tokico and yes, make sure you get koni specific or tokico specific ground controls since they sit different from each other. you'll be happy with either but I say Tokico
