Does anyone have experience with the EMPI coilover shocks that are sold by Road Rat?

What's the quality like?

Save your money, why would you want to use them in the first place?

They should help for drag use by keeping the back end a bit more stiff. Otherwise I would not use them.

I was pondering about the idea of getting some bilstein adjustable coil overs for my front suspension and loosening up the blades. So the fron suspension will have no tention by itself and you use the coil overs for the suspension and ride height.
