I have Bilstein HDs on my 2002 Viggen and I really like them. I don't find the ride much firmer than OEM until hitting dips or bumps, then they really excel. Much better control than the OEM, smoothening out the ride and allowing for better control of the car, especially when in curves. Handling has been much improved!
However, in the winter, I find them a bit harsh when the temps drop below -20C and then they need a block or two of driving to warm up. Probably not an issue with a CV!
I'm not convinced that the adjustability of the Koni shocks is of much benefit. The Bilsteins are designed to auto adjust. I could never see myself crawling into the trunk to play with my shocks...
