Default comp engineering shocks?
how good are these shocks? how do they compare to a set of kyb agx's? and how do they compare to qa1's?

they are going to perform better than a kyb anyday. if the track is good, the comps will work just as well as a qa1. it just doesnt have the adjustability.

They are cheap and work well for a budget shock. They are way better than KYB's but are not as nice as the QA1's.
