Anyone have Tein Flex installed?

Was considering getting the Tein Flex coilovers - does anyone have them installed? If so, I'd love the opportunity for a ride to get a feel for the ride quality.

Paul . . . I may hit you up for a ride, one of these days. I am thinking about switching to something with a bit more adjustable.

The "Boost" just happens to be a residual benefit.

Lets not talk about age as I am getting up there also, the ride is great no bumpty bump ride like the Honda and Integra guys get , what I going to do when my new tires arrive Friday (another story) is to see how she handles around the twisties, I am going to lower the back a little more and give it it's first test.

How much better are the Flex over the Basic? Are they worth the extra $1000?

I've changed my mind about installing my Z H-Techs springs with Tokico DSP-9 and just go with Basics. Man, I'm so indecisive.

After doing some reading it looks like the Flex can be adjusted 16 ways and electronically. Guess I answered my own question.

Yeah, I have the Flex w/EDFC on my car, kind of wish I had the HKS Hipermax.

It's a bit stiff for my liking but the car handles great. =)
