I have installed the gas Koni's on Mi 405 and wish that I hadn't. I have no
experience with the hydraulic Koni's but the gases aren't great (which you
hint at anyway). Personnally I would stay with the Peugeot shock, they are
one of the best in the world. They are built to last the same time as the
car and they have a four valve dual acting system which is rare. They are
also a progressive rate shock; again rare. Are the Koni's adjustable?
