Ive got them on mine sent 1 back to be serviced which was 4 years old sorted no charge. Thats what I call customer service. I would deffinitely recommend


Johneturbo - 24/8/10 at 03:59 PM

Yep they come as standard with the MNR kit


tomgregory2000 - 24/8/10 at 04:06 PM

Yes

a fair few of us run them in RGB, good stuff, especially for the dosh

Happy with mine standard fitment to MK's. There are many new variants since mine though (including double adjustable). Also you might like to by a dynoed set from Procomp, valved for your car...

Yep - they're the best IMHO. They're relatively light, don't rust, don't leak, and their customer service is brilliant.

if you're for a set i'm looking to maybe moving up to the double adjustables,
so i'd have a full set for sale and they were balanced by procomp on his dyno

another yes vote here

I use them and have no probs. The service was good also

They have a good rep, Tim Hoverd (rgb racer) is using them to good effect, they repaired one of his for free after he bent it.


StevieB - 24/8/10 at 09:43 PM

Had them on my MK.

Can recommend getting them through Procomp as they can dyno and balance them properly for you.

Got the fairly new dbl adjustables on mine. Again worth getting them from procomp as they don't cost a y more and will be correctly valved for the application and they can also do your setup for an extra fee.

have procomps and like them! Met them at Detling once, and the guy was very concerned when I said I had trouble reaching them about springs... actually seemed to CARE about a customer!
