If the T1 is the one that uses TORSIONS - then yes - you can run "shocks" (res or not) with the torsions instead of coils.

Take a look at the hoop used for the Total Chaos Gen2 - thats the level of welding/fab needed to run coil over hoops.

In THEORY one could run a Downey bolt on hoop, torsions and res shocks (my current "plan" that I have not verified)... but I dunno if thats a good idea.
