There is no comparison between the two. If you're going to spend the money on KYBs, get Bilsteins. If you're going to need more than a Bilstein, get the Koni. Its very simple ;)2002 5-spd NBM Camaro

I'm running KYB AGX's right now. The Blisteins or Konis would be better.~Derrick <a href=\"http://www.appstate.edu/~do54457/\" target=\"_blank\"><i>My Webpage</i></a><br /><b>\'96 3.8L V6 M5 Firebird Y87</b> | <b>162.8 RWHP</b> / <b>196.7 RWTQ</b> <br /><b>•</b> SLP CAI <b>•</b> <a href=\"http://tech.firebirdv6.com/y87.html\" target=\"_blank\"><b>Y87</b> Package</a> - 3.23s <b>•</b> 180º thermo w/ fan switch <b>•</b> TB spacer from DEE<br />1991 Jeep Cherokee Laredo 4x4

I have the KYBs. They're okay, but the softest settings (1) is not even close to how I would want them at the race track. I think that they would be excellent for road racing and such for the price. Not a bad shock, but not ready for the drag strip. I'll be honest with you, though. I think that you will get similar results at the drag strip with any multi-purpose shock. If you want a drag shock, then get a drag shock with the correct ratio. Gonna suck in everyday driving, though. Don't take any hard curves with them. :D

Basicly.. if you have the money.. koni's are realllllllly nice shocks if you know how to set them up for your application..
I like the HD's personaly.. cause you can get teh valved for your specific application, and then you are set..
I have heard mixed opinions on the kyb's.. they are "OK".. but if you want adjustability the koni's are the way to go..
