The ride was good enough where you can actually carry a pregnant women in the car, lol. Many car enthusiasts says megan racing is crap, etc etc.. I wont say their crap,, but good enough company that puts out some good stuff When turning , there was a little noise coming only from the driver side, came to find out it wasnt grease'd up as the others. Guess a little fault from the company, but no matter. We took that coilover apart, greased it up, assembled it back on and we were noise free! Great coilovers for street enthusiasts, BUT, only made for 5th gens. Comes with 32 adjustable

More Info
The Megan Racing Street Series Coilover Damper Kit is excellent upgrade to your street car. Featuring 32 levels of damper force and full-height adjustment, the Megan Racing coilover damper kit will enhance your car's handling performance.

The adjustment of the damper is simple with a built-in knob at the top of the damper mount for easy access. Simple adjustments can be made to tune to your style of driving and comfort level desired.The height adjustment is made easy with CNC-machined locking perches for accuracy and smooth adjustment. You can raise your car up to factory height for OEM appearance with performance handling or you can drop your car all the way down for an aggressive stance lowering your center of gravity to gain full potential of your car’s handling capabilities.

On many car applications, the Megan Racing Coilover Damper Kits come with fully adjustable Pillow-Ball upper mounts to easily tune and adjust your camber (see specifications table below).

they look like ksports, just different colors. They will last as long as you clean them every week or two to prevent rust...

I heard good and bad from Megan. I have Megan Racing Springs on my car and the ride is stiff, you feel practically every bump on the road. They also have the stiffest spring rate compared to all the others.

All and all I would get something else like the JICs or even BC because Megan just makes copies of other peoples products so it won't be the same.
