Anyone know anything about these? cost, value per dollar vs coilovers? Saw a video of Wil Carter on their web site, evidently he likes em.

Ok gonna post stuff I find as I go along too.
I never like trusting the gas idea (air bags included), springs won't let you down if you loose a seal. I like the idea of being able to tune them with out messing with spring rates but that's not what sold me.It's the combination, bump stop , no sway bar hassle and the reviews are looking good.The jury is still out but it's looking like they will be in my next stage if they hold up.
But hey, if works for you don't fix it.
Also if your a "go fast" type of guy,it's looking like the DP units take out that body roll,that's gotta be nice! If it's just the price you should at least consider it a viable option.

X2 they really arent bad considering you don't need bumps or sways. And the DP3's are lookin sick. There's a couple threads on em with some good info. Def going on my next build, of course that means I have to finish my first.

thats weird, bill is talking to him self. dp3 are like 900 each I think. but by the time you add up air bumps and coil overs, springs and sway bar it might come out cheaper.

OUCH! would be cheaper to go with FOA coilovers and separate bump stops.
