Got a set of Gaz dampers on my K series engined car but want to upgrade them to something better, any suggestions ?

Do not mess about.... go direct to Procomp.

Never heard a bad word about them

I got good service from Damper Tech

Quantum doubles seem very nicely made and race proven! Depends on budget.
My old radical had the double adjustable protechs from procomp and it handled pretty good

Take out as many credit cards as you can, then speak to Simon at Meteor Motorsport....

He will no doubt recommend nitron or quantum

I have Nitrons on my live-axle Caterham. I really rate them.

I know he's had good results with the Penskes this year, but they make the Quantum and Nitron dampers look pretty Locost!

He 3 way nitrons simon used to have in his car were very expensive, the double adjustable quantum are expensive but not like Penske!
A lot of the single seaters, especially the oms run the penskes. Others run koni.
I'd opt against any of these if it's a road car as these are all a high spec race quality damper. Protechs would probably be my choice
After this season I'm going to look at upgrading the single adjustable Avos I currently have
