The shocks will blow before the springs break.

MDU coilovers are actually really good, but i can't vouch for these. mine are full coilover style, and the only problem is the top hats went bad and it makes nasty clunking now. the ride is great though, feels almost oem to me.

Other auctions labeled as MDU are more than 2x the cost.

I wouldn't trust a Chinese company selling these labeled as MDU for 60% cheaper. Seems fishy.

Probably comes from the same build house as several other coilovers. Difference is possibly the the quality of the materials used.

That's how it is for most coilovers. Look at BC, Megan, etc. Notice how they look very similar? They differ in shock height possibly, but spring rates, dampening, color, etc are also different. Other than that, they come from the same build factory. Only a few companies have their own design (tein, hks, impul, cusco, etc...and that's why their cost is up there).
