My point is that ANY shock that is valved to control sway will be WAY TOO STIFF for all other conditions. Said another way, do not expect shocks to control sway. That is the job of sway bars, with any shock, even the best only contributing a small amount.
Interesting, this seems at odds with Koni's claims:
Advantages of FSD shock absorbers
Ends the compromise between comfort and handling
No need for sensors, cables, or other electronic devices
Damper cost efficient
Ultimate road holding and handling
Improved grip and safety level
Great stability
Optimum comfort level
Superior body controlAdding comfort to low profile tyres
Maximum driving pleasure
And:
"By using a special secondary valve that registers the different pressures associated with different frequencies, the FSD dampers can exert the high force needed at low frequencies to control body roll while becoming more compliant for improved ride quality when experiencing higher frequency bumps in the road."
I am skeptical of their claims and it sounds like you have some experience with them, so I will take your word for it, but they don't seem to be breaking the laws of physics.
