Default Adjustable shocks?

I have been thinking about buying Hal adjustable shocks. I just found that KYB gas shocks make a 5-way adjustable shock called the AGX. The price for these are $89 each. That is alot cheaper than the Hals. So are these any good? I have not heard of anyone using these.

Thanx
Mike

I have the agx kybs..they work pretty good on stock height cars..and mild drop.I have the slp eibachs.The don't work well and aren't recommended I think with any drop over 1.5 inch.
They have an ok range of adjustment .you can set them pretty soft for dialy driving on bad streets.
and then try softer fronts say 3 and mabye 5 back for track stuff or stagger the backs and dial them up for autocross.I might still upgrade to the hals at some point or might just get the slp bilsteins ..I am finding I have way too much stuff to fiddle with on my car..it can drive you crazy..LOL..adjustable shocks..torque arms,ls1 edit..maft..etc.etc..

I have the KYBs and they are 8 way adjustable not 5. They get to be pretty stiff at the higher settings. I find anything above the 4 setting too stiff for the street.
