Hey, I've just ordered Tein Fles + EDFC from Japan.
Where did you take your power from? I've already got my boost controller running from my cigarette lighter fuse.
Any tips for running the wires thru the car? What about a pic of where you mounted the EDFC unit?
Thanks!

As of now, I don't know where I want to mount the edfc, so it's just laying in the glove box. I got power from the radio power, behind the unit. I ran the wire through a rubber boot in the firewall. The rear I ran through the side, under the step panel that has a Lexus logo on it.

Can you elaborate?
So you took the power from the radio - not the radio fuse in the fuse box? I normally jam a wire in there with the fuse.
How did you gain access to the step with the Lexus logo?
Thanks!

EV ftw!!!
Very nice drop and choice of mods!
I also have the Tein Flex with EDFC and I also find the ride harsh on our frost fractured city roads.

Excellent! Congrats on doing all that work yourself - very impressive.
Looks GREAT.
About harshness, mine's on 14/16 for 'comfy' driving and it's fine. I have 6/8 for 'sporty' driving, and 0/0 for 'get out of my way' driving. Part of what might be making it seem harsh is the pillow mounts are a bit noisier over sudden bumps than the stock rubber mounts.

nice job!!! is it me, or is the drop a little too much right now since the suspension still has to settlle?? i personally have NO GAP all around, and love the look, but if yours is that low before it settles, it may be a problem (anyone feel free to correct me if i am wrong)
also, you will get used to the harsh ride, but your passengers wont
