I run the stock shocks on my Hyper 7, but I have changed out the oil to 60 wt, with the heavy (white) springs all the way around, and 9 mm of preload in the rear. this makes a much firmer ride, but the white springs give enough rebound to keep the suspension very active. without using the ride height adjustment screws in the front, my suspension arms ride level. this setup doesnt get much height off jumps, but it keeps you low to the track where you can put power to the ground
