I am using the Db-01 aeration dampers and the car feels great. The car feels more solid and seems it will be able to handle more abuse than the carbons from the 3 racing. It looks like i will be sticking with them even when race season starts. Whar are your guys thoughts on the different type of shock towers that are offered for the Durga?
The 3racing towers are (and I'm being polite here) not really up to the job, although they do look pretty. If you run standard shocks and dogbones the carbon reinforced towers are OK. If you have the aeration buggy dampers (TA-54028) you'll know that these are a massive improvement over the kit items but also that you can't run CVD's as well without neutering the shocks by limiting the droop. If you want to run good shocks with FULL travel and use CVD's then you need one of the new Atomic Carbon towers. I've never seen one break and they have been designed to cure the problem of the 54028 dampers being too long for the Durga's suspension/driveshafts.
