Ah. Well if you are serious about Autox then you need to consider what class these will put you in. Overall Tein is middle of the road but for street use they are fine.

Ah okay, well Tein Flex should be fine for your needs. But you could get Tein Basis new for less and it would save you some cash towards boost and ****.

I looked at megans but heard too many bad reviews the EDFC made me lean towards tein only cause adjusting the settings in the car is sweet and the gps auto adjust sounds good too

Why spend any money on it at all and just wait for the Ohlins? You will get the money saved faster if you aren't buying stuff twice.

I've been thinking about taking my Tein type flex off and possible going back to stock.
I do have the EDFC control box which does work great,but the ride is just a little to harsh for me.

This probably won't happen until it warms up and all the snow is gone,and would consider selling
for a grand all in. Give me a PM if your interested.
