We should probably throw Ohlins in the mix too- maybe the best design out there with their race products.

I would like to learn more about the offerings specific to the 1M/ M3, especially in the dual use street/ track range. I've had JRZ 1x, JRZ 2x and Moton 3x on previous Porsches, but always full-race, never club-sport. My impressions are that Moton and JRZ are very similar in internal design, but that Moton is slightly higher quality. I tend to feel that AST is in the same range depending on model, KW is one rung down and the Ohlins one rung above everything else mentioned.

Has anyone done or seen a good shock-dyno of a 1M stock?
I'll post the shock specification graphs as soon as I have some time to finish my ED post (in a comparative graph with the M3 ZCP EDC shocks), they are made by BMW's longtime shock supplier ZF/ Sachs/ Boge. The 1M front shocks are equal to E9X M3 ZCP shocks, IIRC the rear shocks are unique to the 1M
