Doesn't something similar already exist from Ferrari, Mercedes-Benz, etc.? Pretty sure I read something about them having something inside the shock where, once the "Sport" suspension is engaged, an electromagnet engages and stiffens up the shock. Not a 100% electromagnetic shock but it's kinda similar.

All I ever wanted was an honest weeks pay for an honest days work.

Yes its made by Delphi and called MagneRide and is in some Audi, Ferrari, GM, Acura, BMW, and Holden vehicles. In about 04' there was talk about using the technology in helicopters for vibration dampning. http://downloads.hindawi.com/journal...004/546845.pdf

The Warnings & Cautions discussed in this manual cant cover all possible conditions/situations. It must be understood that common sense and caution are factors which cant be built into this product.
