Jim,
I've had them for about 30k miles now. I have the controller in the secret compartment and I think I've messed with it the first week, after that it has been on the same settings.
It has three presets but 95% of the time I have it at the same settings.
You also get 32 settings out of the coilovers, instead of 16. They can adjust to "half a click".
My Teins are the Mono, no complains other than they are somewhat noisy sometimes when going over big bumps. But most coilovers with pillow ball mounts make some noise.

i have the flex w/ the edfc and i'd like to sell em actually..
Trackwise KWs or billstein are better IMHO
The flexes are very stiff.. which is nice for show.. not nice for track (unless it the 1/4 mile track and even then i'm no so sure )
Stiff = less cambering of car..
less cambering of car = less weight on the outside corner of the car
less weight on the outside corner of the car means less sticking to the ground in the corner...
if you are still interested.. i'd part w/ mine.. got 50-55k on em.
i tracked a bit more so i did use the edfc from time to time.. but it was a rare occasion..

KW V3 Best all around coilover.....very track able (what i have on my car & National Championship) Very streetable.....Motons are a true track coilover but due to the Valving they would have to be rebuilt every 6 months on the street.
I have never really like the Teins for street or track.....but thats just my OP.
KW for the money cant go wrong.
