Anyone running AST 4100 on full street car? Just wondering if monotube shock works better compared to twin tube. I know mono tube has an ability to withstand more pressure than twin tube but it doesn't mean it will be harsher on the street.

Monotube shocks are MILES above twin tube designs. AST has one of the best monotube designs on the market and you would be thrilled with their performance. All of the upper echelon struts, such as Ohlins & JRZ, are monotube. Probably more than you needed to know but yes, monotube is the way to go!
