A bilstien will be better at that level, start talking higher priced integra like IDA which are many times more expensive than the bargin shocks. Bilstiens are rebuildable yourself with cheap parts and can handle what your dishes out.

bilsteins would be more economical then the 4200 series integras. Bilsteins can be fixed if damaged like broken or bent shaft or dented tubes unlike the integras. The 4200 series are a throw away shock hence the cheaper price because the are not rebuildable.

Couldn't agree more. I have tried 4200 series integras, it's great but not as great as Bilsteins since it can be reused when it's a bit damaged.
