Good advice there. For my own setup I went through detailed specifications and use-case discussions with the Penske agent in Australia, who subsequently valved and setup the shocks to suit including providing full dyno results on every shock setting permutation and the >50 page Penske 7500 technical manual. Buying off the shelf you're going to get what you get, and it wont necessarily suit the car no matter brand of shock it is.
