Some pretty cool testing with Koni - check out the video & take a look at Koni's Active Suspension - worth a watch:

Should be much more comfortable. There's a section of the video where he drives over some grass and you can see how much more smoothly the active suspension glides than the OE equipment.I would like to know if these new active shocks would make a more comfortable ride? I live in the Chicago area and our roads are pretty bad here. I have the progressive springs and pro action shocks at the moment and sometimes it feels like my car is going to break if I drive over those road buckles. Are the progressive springs compatible with the new active shocks?
Please inform when you do. I will be very interested in any set-up that makes the day-to-day driving comfort better in my 2015 GT. I am not nearly as concerned with the handling as I am with something that is a little less harsh when you hit a bump. Thanks!We will pair these with our springs when we do our comprehensive testing. We will provide recommended packages as we do with our current set-ups, comfort, track, etc.
More to come ... but yes, these things look awesome!

Should work with non-MR cars easier than the MR ones. From what I'm understanding, these replace your standard shocks/struts (without a separate controller). As a very uninformed guess, I would estimate the hierarchy to be something like: Stock < PP < ProActions < Active < MRI assume this is only going to work with 18+ models that have the Magneride option?
Or is there a way to retro-fit a standalone controller in other non-magride cars?
So what is "active" about this suspension, or what is different than the 15-17 Koni dampers?It’s for cars that didn’t come with Magneride, based on the feedback I have received.

Yes, seems that way. Should fit any non-MR S550.So... sounds like this could work on 15-17 GT as well not just 2018s?
