Not sure if your 940 is turbo or not, but the boge turbo gas shocks are not intended (nor recommended) for 740 turbos. Not that a 740 is a 940, but the turbo gas are in my turbo, and they are the reason that I can't tighten the gland nuts completely. The front also sits about an inch higher than it's intended to.
Also, the boge turbo gas started to stop feeling "great" in only a few thousand miles. They're not soggy, but I want to replace them.

In other words, I don't like the boge turbo gas, and despite having turbo in the name, they aren't right for turbo cars (at least hte 740's).

I'm curious how the Excel-G struts are too. I love the KYB gas-a-justs and have had them in the rear of my 740T for about 20,000 miles - still love them. I only wish they came in struts for the front.

Cheers
