I only put my coil on for uplift days. I would not put a plastic bike in the uplift truck so it is air all the way for you.

Can't help but thought I'd point out there's a review in the new issue of Dirt.

Have you looked at the Ibis forum on MTBR? This subject has been talked to death about on there. I think a lot of the Yanks are running Rockshox Monarchs RT3's matched with a Lyrik fork.
I was going to try a Bos Vip'r with a Deville fork but mine is stuck in 140 mode for now. All my mates have have XC and trail bikes, so not sure where I'll make the most of a 160 travel bike? ๐Ÿ™
Whichever route you go down it will have been talked about on the forum I've already mentioned.

Air seems fine on mine,but I haven't tried a coil so have nothing to compare it to.

Suppose it comes down to how much the extra weight would affect you, as by all accounts a coil will perform better than air
