Default Tein SS-P w/ Pillowball Mounts with EDFC???

I currently have TRD Struts and Tein H-Techs and they are just WAY too soft for me. So, I am looking to get Tein SS-P w/ Pillowball Mounts with EDFC. They any good? Any problems? EDFC does a good job? Can you adjust stiffness? If so, how? Sorry for the badgering of the questions.

EDFC is just an electronic controller to adjust dampening on-the-fly... those without the EDFC have to do it manually.

it's not needed.. but more convenient.

these are great, dampening adjustment are nice but dont expect a huge difference in comfort by using the dampening adjustment it helps though. Huge diffrence in handling compared to stock, but could be too much though for those who values comfort so much, but not bad at all. I highly recommend it

i have them, but with out the edfc. i do not really see the need for the edfc since adjusting the dampening would only be beneficial for race conditions. i basically got them b/c i hated how the rear would sag with a system in the trunk. and also i like the idea of being able to get a different set of wheels and not having to worry about whether or not theyll fit b.c of the drop.
