please when you make statments like these do research before posting, BC and Megans are both made in taiwan and probably by the same company.


I'm very happy with my BC...for the money in that price range nothing is better. Tein basics are absolute garbage.

Well that's kind of contradictory considering BC and Megans are both made by Bor Chaun in Taiwan. Depending on what is considered 'good', many Japanese coils suck too.

bc sounds like the majority winner here, although i still have to point out that my adjustable teins (adjustable from inside the car) are great. maybe theres a cheaper model thats killed the rep but the ones on my sc are definitely great.

Most people believe teins are crap, my brother had teins and they blew, my friends friend bought a new set of teins and went to the track blew all of them.

Megans are not that bad, just because of the price. You probably read someone oh megans suck but you don't have first hand experience

Hmm, so having hypermax automatically makes you know about coilovers interesting!

Oh well

I've ridden in megans, its not bad of a coilover. It lowers your car and its a soft ride perfect for him.
