1. it takes a lot of time and effort to develop mounts from standard dampers.

2. racings dampers typically have shorter travel (except for rally cars) than factory cars.

3. racings dampers requires maintenance at a much more frequent interval.

4. a key advantage of racing dampers is that they can provide consistent damping characteristics under the slightest displacement. For a street car you are looking for a lot of displacement for comfort, so basically you won't be able to realize the benefits of a racing damper at all.
