Konis, now available for the 986 in two different styles (sport and "FSD"), makes a top-quality twin tube that probably cost about the same as a Bilstein, and if you're in the market for new set of struts, I would recommend seriously considering a set of Konis of some sort.
I thought the Boxster came with monotube struts? So the currently available Bilstein HD and Sport struts aren't OEM equivalent?
