I have owned all 3 IMHO the Yellows were the best with my style of driving plus it has the lowering capability. Illuminas were ok and to me the adjustment wasn't as broad as the Koni's. I liked the AGX's but since the don't seem to last on lowered cars I got rid of them.

^^^Agreed. I've ridden on many shocks and the yellows are by FAR the best. I had AGX's on my old hatch and they were pretty comfy but the shock dyno faq shows they don't have much adjustability.
