Default Tanabe pro seven and TEAS

I accidently purchased Tanabe Pro Seven....I was looking for NF210 springs. I have no idea what I did. should I keep it or just sell it and buy nf210...If I keep should I buy TEAS or not? Yesterday I took to my friend who is Mechanic from Volvo and he have no idea what to do..... do I have to take to preformance shop to install it? how difficult is to intall coilover and TEAS? do I have to install coilover and teas together or just install coilover and put TEAS later? I never thought of buying a coilover so never did research on coilovers....

if you have then already keep them! its the perfect balance to a drop you will get. not that springs wont work. I have not installed a TEAS system but I am sure you can get it installed for ~75$

Cant wait to see pics

I'll say keep it, this way you can have the perfect drop you want. I too was looking at the NF but ending up getting the pro five. I was actually quoted less to install the coilovers as opposed to the springs.

you can add it later. in fact I would see if you like it with out as you probably will not need it IMO.

TEAS only adjusts shock damping. It does not adjust ride height. In order to adjust ride height, you have to physically turn the spring seat collars.
