Strange vs. Koni Yellow Adjustables
I ran Strange Adjustables on my Fox. Any reason the ones for 05-10 wouldn't work fine on my '12? They're about $200+ cheaper than Koni Yellows. Will the Strange do ok on a lowered vehicle? Any reason I should pick one over the other? I do plan on drag racing the car, and probably won't ever road race it, but do want to be able to adjust for street driving vs. the track,etc. Speak up!

The Koni yellows do very well with lowered cars. I'll send you a pm in afterwards on pricing. I have the yellows on my Boss right now, they offer a hefty range of adjustability and paired with the right Springs (BMR) they would do very well at the track. The BMR rear spring rate I beleive is right at 160ish, so with the adjustability you could easily run at the track and on the street.

The strange will be a better fit for your application. The koni are valved more towards handling. You can only adjust the compression on either set, but the koni rebound are not so much drag friendly.

That's kinda the feedback I'm wanting. I'm looking for something that ranges from a little bit stiffer than stock since I'm lowered to pretty loose up front for at the track. Car will eventually be supercharged, so traction will become an issue at some point.

All I do is race mine, and daily it to work and back sometimes. I'm thinking of going with the Lakewood 70/30 combo - http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/...Drag-Strut-Kit
Daily driving on the 70/30s isn't too bad, but the 90/10s are a bit scary on the street. |
I've been wondering the exact same thing about the Strange shocks, I'll be doing more drag racing than anything else and they are significantly cheaper. Downtime, have you read any reviews about the Lakewood's, those don't look bad either.

most likely will be going with the strange all around with some sportline springs. the lakewoods look interesting, i'll have to read up on them too. |

Yeah I meant with these cars, I've looked a little through SVTP but haven't seen many people running them. I've had Lakewood and Strange stuff on previous cars, no complaints on those.

i have also been looking at the ultralites for a while now. i have a few months until i need to make a decision since id like to put it all on in May, or, if i can get the wife to take it to TS, i'll have it done before i get home so i dont have to worry about all of that like i did last month with the Paxton install. took way more time than i planned and the wife wasnt happy. |
I have the Pro kit on mine and I can usually cut decent 60 ft's (1.6x pretty regularly). I'm thinking about replacing them with the Drag Launch kit since that's all I really do with the car anymore.
