k_h_d,

They will still work. The super mini CVA's have a different tolerance in build to the TRF shocks.

You can always experiment with the pistons and work out which are better for your racing surface and driving style. The oil that comes with the Super mini cva's is approx 40 wt.

I presently run the TRF M chassis shocks setup as posted before, however dependant on track conditions, springs and oils may need to be changed to suit.

I would suggest take the car out and run it and see if it handles well and then concentrate on being smooth. Remember to run a low ride height, otherwise you will traction roll.

regards,

Calvin.
