Overview
Not a stiffer performance shock, the Excel-G is a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube design calibrated to restore original, designed performance. KYB says it is built on its OE assembly lines with OE quality components.
The OEA classification means Original Equipment for the Aftermarket, aimed at drivers who want the factory feel back. The limited lifetime warranty covers the original purchaser while they own the vehicle, and no vehicle list is on the page.
Who it's for
For daily drivers and light trucks used for personal driving where original behavior is the goal. Owners wanting a sport setup or a documented vehicle list should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons

Performance notes
Nitrogen gas charging is part of this twin-tube design. The Excel-G is calibrated to match original designed performance, so the ride feels like the factory setup rather than changing it.
