Race proven NEOMAX 2-Way kits offer 24 clicks of independent rebound via the top of the shock and 40 clicks of compression adjustment via the external reservoir. Being able to adjust rebound and compression independently allows you to fine tune your vehicle over harsh bumps that may be unsettling the car, but you can also fine tune the dive and pitch of the car to help improve turn-in and exiting behavior on the track.
LARGE EXTERNAL RESIVOIR
2-Way kits use large external reservoirs, which allow for higher oil capacity which aids in cooling and keeps the shock performing at hig ambient temperatures while being put through the paces on track. The large reservoirs also allow for a higher volume of nitrogen which in turn requires less overall pressure for the shock to perform as it should. This helps with extended stroke situations such as rumble strips or sudden drops with a tire dropping off track.
HYBRID LINEAR PISTON DESIGN
They use a 44mm Linear type piston with Digressive valving in our shocks. This hybrid style piston gives both excellent track benefits as well as maintains an excellent ride quality. Every single shock is handle assembled, and dyno tested to insure dampening and compression valving is within 5% variation from side to side. There is no random inspection or tests, every single shock is dyno tested. In the event the shock fails, the internals are discarded and it goes back to the assembly room.
LARGE HARDENED STEEL SHAFTS
They use the largest diameter necessary hardened steel with chrome plating for our piston shafts. With extensive research and development we have the perfect material and diameter needed to have the proper strength necessary to retain lateral rigidity and not bend or bind under heavy loads, which leads to pre-mature wear and lowering piston travel. Making it the perfect combination of strength and weight savings.
- Common Spring Rate Selections:
- 12k/8k, soft comfortable daily driver, not much aggressive driving.
- 12k/10k Good all around setup, sporty but not too stiff.
- 14k/10k Drift setup when running a front sway bar.
- 18k/10k Drift setup when NOT running a front sway bar.
- Adjustable T6 6061 front camber plates on all applicable McPherson style applications.
- Koyo Japan Radial Bearing upper spring perch standard on all applicable McPherson applications. This eliminates spring bind, noise, and gives improved driver feedback.
- 24 levels of damping adjustability combined with our high grade shock oil, not only do you feel the click in your fingers, you feel every damping adjustment in the driver’s seat.
- High strength JIS G3445-STKM13C (DIN2393-ST44-2) carbon steel 52mm diameter seamless shock tube.
- 44mm piston with digressive style valving characteristics provides maximum low speed damping response for ultimate performance while simultaneously giving a comfortable ride.
- Mono-tube shock design, Increases shock oil capacity as well as displacement over twin tube designs for maximum performance.
- High viscosity IP F.A. 5W damper oil ensures the best efficiency and consistency of shock-absorption and damping control.
- Height adjustability is provided by the lower bracket which prevents the need to adjust the spring perch or preload, offering the maximum possible travel regardless of height setting.
- Cold-bent springs made from high strength SAE9254 steel which keeps stable elastic modulus.
- Powder coated steel lower brackets matching all factory brake line & ABS wire tabs, for seamless installation.
- Anodized T6 6061 aluminum lower mounts for multi-link suspension systems to lower unsprung weight.
- 5 Year limited manufacturer’s warranty.
Let customers speak for us
Brian R. was extremely helpful and spent a good amount of time answering my questions about switching to coilovers. He was a wealth of knowledge and made the purchasing and installation process very easy.
He is so genuine, he helped me out on which parts I should get for my wife’s ‘16 Veloster Turbo. Parts came super fast and was packaged beautifully
Havn't installed yet so I cannot speak to the parts, as they get some run time I will review. Brian at FI was amesome though all through the process. Had questions prior to ordering and he went above and beyond in providing me with answers. After I ordered the parts he called a few days later appologizing for not reaching out sooner, which is crazy cool since country was dealing with hurricane devestation. I didnt expect to recieve parts for a while however they all showed up in about a week. I will def do buisiness with them again and recommend them to anyone in the future.
I bought Silvers Neomax coilovers with aero spring rates (14k/12k) for my track car. The quality of them is great. Install was straight forward and they are easy to adjust and tune as needed. Real happy with them so far and I think they're the best value out there in coilovers. Great price without a sacrifice in quality or performance. Also Brian at FI PERFORMANCE has been great in responding to all of my questions. Has been a great experience so far.
Quality part.
Brian answered every time I called and answered all the questions
Excellent coilovers
The best customer service from Brian
Highly recommended
Car looks great and. Handles amazing
Works great it stiffens up the rear end and no more wheel hop best diff brace out of all I have used in the past, money well spent.
Installed the After Dark hooks on my C5: the rear hook was very easy, and if you only need one hook, it's a quick and easy install. Front is more work: you're going to want a step drill or right angle adapter, since clearance between the bumper and A/C condenser is tight. Drilling into the bumper is not trivial: it's hard, use cutting fluid and make sure your drill bits are sharp. Once it's drilled and the rivnuts are installed, it's easy from there. It's a good design, well made, and at a reasonable price.
The product was originally marked for 2005 and up gx470. I managed to fit it into my 2003 by flipping one of the front hanger mounts. Sound is throaty and deep a bit loud at first. But the sound has mellowed out after a few hundred miles. Hardest part was removing old exhaust had to use Sawzall. Make sure to buy the 2.5 donut gasket ahead of time. The system is high clearance. Its tucked between the frames no chance of hang ups.
It’s the best mod I’ve done. Should have been the first thing I did.
Brian was extremely kind and helpful to make sure I was getting set up with the correct products. The Brey Krause harness bar is extremely high quality. Don’t cheap out on safety stuff this is definitely the harness bar you want in your c5. The combination of great service from Brian and the quick arrival I highly recommend FI Performance and will definitely be using them in the future!
Five stars for the parts and service. Ride quality is better than expected for a coilover setup. And Brian was super helpful in getting the correct setup for my truck
Fits perfectly and does exactly what it needs to do. No complaints.
Brian recommended these end links after sharing my plans to do some HPDE, Autocross and Street driving for the C5 Z06. The parts feel great, I did have a warranty issue that was addressed by both Brian and AFE, I was very satisfied that they took care of my issue in a timely manner as well. Highly recommend both Brian and AFE, thank you as always for your help!
