I rag on megan coilovers a lot, but standard ones are not god awful...they just are not that good. Now where near as bad as a tein basic or ksport. The race ones however puzzle me. A couple companies like megan over a "race" version with much high springs rates....ridiculously higher. Often the damper cannot handle the super high spring rate, hence the bounciness, and the springs are higher than anything you would want anyways. Even if you car were strictly a race car that never saw street and you were using super high end dampers, the megan race springs are simple too high.

And since it keeps coming up, I want to state my (educated) opinion on one set.

TEIN BASICS ARE GARBAGE!!!!!! They will hurt performance.
