Last month I removed KYB from the front and replaced then with the Boge "Turbo" (not 951, just a product name) strut inserts. Not only were tyhe KYBs not EXACTLY the correct hieght in the cylinders, but because they don't have the 7mm hex offset in the top, they were a MASSIVE B&%TCH to get out.
As to performance, no choice on this one... it may be twice the cost, but the Boge are 10 to 100 times better than those old KYB. I would guess that they had been in there for ~5years, since that's when the PO purchased the car and "upgraded" it. So after ~5 years, the KYBs were absolute crap.
