Besides tires, shock absorbers are among the most important parts on your car. They need to be perfectly matched to your springs, your driving style and your car overall.

price

Consider what you get with AST products and the value for your money becomes self evident. All levels of AST shock absorber are hand built using brand new, custom housings. Even with the 4100 Series, you are getting the internals of the 3 way shock absorbers in a single adjustable coilover kit. Competitiors at or below AST prices simply do not offer the same high technology and features.
performance

AST shock absorbers are monotube design for a reason; they perform better. When will you notice this? Big bumps in turns and fast transitions on the track / autocross course are where true premium shock absorber performance becomes evident. Ride in or drive any car with this level of shock absorber and you’ll know instantly why people buy them, they make the difference. Other non-monotube designs on the market exist for two reasons: comfort and cheaper manufacturing expense. These are two things you can do without when time on the track counts.
piston size

AST's monotube design translates into a bigger piston. When you put AST shock absorbers on your car, you know that those big pistons can handle much larger loads. This translates directly into the ability to fine tune your shock absorbers. Other shock absorbers that use twin tubes have much smaller pistons; and that means less ability to handle performance loads and less flexibility when it comes to adjustments.
pressurization

All of our shock absorbers are pressurized to a minimum of 175 psi with nitrogen. High pressurization keeps the oil from cavitating around the AST piston. Cavitation makes the shock absorber ineffective, pressurization makes a consistent environment for the shock absorber to do its job correctly with every stroke. Other lesser products (and even some more expensive ones) say they are pressurized, but they may be only 14 - 29 psi - not something you need on your mind when approaching the next curve.
