Less holes or smaller hole diameter and lighter oil gives same low speed dampning but higher high speed damping. Somewhere on petitrc there was a nice comparison chart...

So even with 4 hole pistons you maybe need a bit lighter oil.

Yes. I`ve got the vbc tbbs shocks and as they have quite high damping with 3 hole pistons and 350 oil i rebuilt them with 4 hole and 450 and its more moderate now. But still harder damping compared to normal length yokomo shocks with 3 hole 550 oil.
So even with 4 hole pistons you maybe need a bit lighter oil.

1 .think it's for high grip carpet haven't found a track where it works outside for me yet
2. The kit shocks are good but 4 holes make them to soft buy and fit 3 holes with 400-450cst oil (400 my fav)
As for better the normal d08 shocks if it's really bump the larger shock should perform better but if it's not too bumpy the shorter ones are just as good but better on smooth tracks
