And for those curious, Ksport and D2 are the same thing. Made in the same factory.
Hello

How would you go about mimicking the Tein CS ? Would it be rebuilding the BC racing coils to match spec? or just pre-adjusting the height and damper controls on the BC racing coils?

are EDFC compatiable on BC coils?

Most likely give you similar spring rates. I don't know exactly what they do with the valving though. Would love a shock dyno, but could never get my hands on them.

Is it true that BC causes vibration in Idle?

I hope not. I have heard that most coilovers make noise however.

Most of the dynos I've seen are useless with very little data, and the ones that actually do surface are always the same ones. None are specific for the application in question. I've tried to get shock dynos from other vendors and most of them say the same thing "I have it somewhere, I'll send it when I get home," but I never get it. . It's one reason why I didn't buy a set for myself. Most people don't care for shock dynos and they shouldn't if their priority is not based on performance. I'm very meticulous about these kinds of things and having dampers that work for my intended purpose is important.
