Default C7 T1 shock part number

Does anyone know the part # for the T1 shocks which are an upgrade from the factory z51 shocks? I dont have MRC. I do have the Hotchkiss sway bars and dont want to do the lcarms. I know the shocks are part of a total tuned T1 package. Otherwise ill prob go with the Koni sport shocks. Thanks

Front 22873513 Rear 22873509. I've used the full T1 kit on my car, and it was pretty disappointing. They merely used Z51 shocks that were a wee bit stiffer right before they released the car. These shocks are in no way stiff enough to do any remarkable improvement.

Here is my build thread where I covered this issue. LG G:2 coilovers worked great for track use and matched Grand Sport lap times with appropriate tires, if not better. Penskes were good, too, and allowed me to make the right height perfect (Since Penskes are completely custom order). I should note, all these coilovers were noisy.

Good luck!
