Default OEM Shock Dyno?

Has anyone dynoed a stock shock? I bought a set of shocks for autocrossing and I thought that it would be a good time to start a decent log book. I would like to include a dyno of the stock shocks for a point of reference. I thought that I would check here before I sent my OEM shocks off to the shop.

Never seen one, but if you do get data, please share it! We're always interested in solid tech info.

I sent the shock out today. I hope to have the result in about a week or two.

Crap, I just logged on for the first time in days and saw this thread. I have dyno plots for OEM front and rear shocks for a 2001. It will be interesting to see how close our data is.

I could only fit one in the box, and I chose the front. I assumed the the curves would be close. That is what I get for assuming.

stock shocks don't suck. Threre are some that are better, but they work very well.
