Ok I think I am sold. EDFC ACTIVE sounds amazing!!

Agreed!

EDFC can change ride height?

No, just damping.

getting these installed this spring. did your leg ever hit the controller on that side? and any tips for the install?

The new EDFC Active controller is much smaller (as in not as deep) so I actually had it installed where the seat heater switches are and moved those switches to inside the console. Worked out well.

Here is what I am talking about:

Nice, I wish the original one was not as deep because that is where I originally wanted it.
Ended up putting it where your relocated your heater switches actually and works out nicely. Still easy access but now unknown to people unless they get into my car.

Reviving an old thread here, but doing my research on what suspension I'd like to get next year. I do a lot of autocross and a few track days a year here and there. I was looking into the Tein Flex or Mono Flex coils and the active EDFC. Anyone have any updates on their experience on the track and streets? I also daily drive the car.

I am also intersted in this system, however, what confuses me is that such few people seem to have it. The EDFC seems very unique and a pretty cool feature to have, especially since dialing in coilovers can be such a pain. I guess I am asking, why do such few people go this route?

depending on the person's setup for their car.. some people just want their car lowered, so they just go for low price coilovers or spring setup..
some wants track setup and move to coilovers with spring rates that suits the track more..
others want true type coilovers or air lifts..
and money plays a role here too since tein mono flex or other tein edfc compatible coilovers plus the edfc unit itself will run around $2,000.00 range

Yeah it doesn't seem like the cheapest route but out of everyone on this forum it seems like only a few have gone with this option.

i mean how often do ppl adjust their coilover stiffness? yes with edfc, it is a lot easier since u can do it inside the car and have like 4 or 5 saved setting to change around with..
but most ppl drives their car on the street and they usually adjust it once or twice to their liking and leave it at the setting..
ppl that usually adjust their stiffness more often is the track guys, since different track and condition requires different settings to run faster..
some do track with the tein line coilovers but also for that price range.. ppl would rather spend a little more or equal to for a set of coilovers that is more aggressive or more suitable for tracking..
not saying tein is bad in anyway.. they are quality coilovers but there is a lot of options out there and it depends on what the person's goal for the car is

Thats exactly why i went for the EDFC set up i can adjust the settings for track days then soften the suspension for everyday use, best of both worlds really.

From what it sounds like, with the EDFC active pro, the suspension changes based off speed and g forces. That's kind of the same concept as Chevys magnetic ride suspension. Obviously the EDFC isn't as quick or as expensive but the concept is similar.
