I'm currently running Bilstein front inserts in my Boge T Struts, that may have been valved for my 914 but I don't know for sure as they were installed by the PO. In efforts to get better brakes I am putting in some Koni 3.5" Struts. Has anyone here compared the two in there car? What should I expect going from Bilstein's to Koni Yellow's?
