intrax or eibach

[2tochoose]

Which one does everyone recommend I noticed brand new intrax are cheaper and lower it more but also sound like they might be stiffer

I was about to post this exact topic, but since you did already, great. Does anyone have pictures of the wheel gap of Intrax springs compared to Eibach ones? Also, any negative feedback on the Intrax's because a lot of SHO owners run Eibach's. Any word from those modified Monroe Struts from that racing school in TN? I emailed him numerous times but have not recieved an email about these struts. I was asking how they compare to other aftermarket ones like Konis or Tokico.

here is a pic of my car, it has intrax springs installed.

I have heard good feedback on both. The Intrax do seem stiffer than the Eibach. Try e-mailing Nook at prosuspension.com. I recall he sells both and switched back and forth between the two in the past year on his own car (I think).

CTOESHO- I asked Mike the same question and got a reply the other day. The struts are stiffer than stock for performance for sure. He couldn't make any other claims as to how well they would operate with non stock springs. I find that to be a bummer as well as a reasonable response. I am still reluctantly considering them but I don't want to do this twice so probably Koni's for me.

I am also in the consideration braket of which springs to get...I can get the eibach's from someone going to sping zing 02 for $214.97 or I can get the intrax from summit for like $209 plus shipping. How much does a stiffer ride affect day to day driving? And doesn't the intrax springs have a bigger drop?

How about SS springs?? wink

 

[CTOESHO]

RI-SHO-HA!, I would run SS springs if I could find them. Isn't SHOshop getting together with Intrax to make a spring for the SHO? I thought someone mentioned that, (TOM) when someone was raging about SHOshop's service.

This is a portion of the reply I got from Mike concerning the Bondurant Struts...

"These struts are custom valved and mfg. for the Bondurant SHO's and made in the good ole USA. Roush Racing modified the SHO's after they left Ford in Atlanta and before they were shipped to Phoenix. I am sure that Roush had some say so in what Monroe needed to do to the struts to make the SHO's handle at their maxium abilities. These cars were used by the instructors at the Bondurant School. Each instructor had a SHO, which had to be able to perform with the Bondurant Roush Mustang's & Cobra's on the track. These struts are designed to perform on the track, left and right turns. I am not sure of the quality of Toyo's and Koni's, but these are preminum struts at a much lesser price. A average auto parts store strut will cost you $60ea. or more."

This is what essentially sold me. It also sounded like he had many left over to sell. I'll have mine on w/Eibachs in roughly a month or so (whenever I get the money for installation), so I'll be able to testify on their behalf.
