Koni FSD shocks
Nope, I had not heard of them either until about two weeks ago! Koni has just introduced a new range of high-performance shocks that, at the moment, is only available off the shelf for a limited number of high-end sports cars and saloons. Basically, the shock absorbers contain two entirely separate circuits that are designed to work independently of each other, so that high frequency movement is dampened in a different way to low frequency movement. In other words, the shocks will be able to ride out a rough road surface while reacting perfectly to chassis load in corners etc.
Well anyway, I'm speaking to a company here in the UK called Sportsline Suspensions, who are one of two Koni main agents, about whether this system can be fitted into a regular-sized shock absorber casing. No news just yet, but it is looking promising. This might be the perfect street shock, who knows? Go to the Koni website and make up your own mind. I'm tired of my Bilsteins, so I'll be swapping them out this summer anyway.
As ever, no financial affiliation etc etc.
