Does any one have anny experience with the TEIN damper suspension...seems like a good price, 780$ for everything but not sure about the quality.

im installing the basic damper coilovers in about two or three weeks. ive heard nothing but good things about Tein from people who have owned Audi A4's and TT's, Subaru WRX sedans and wagons, and Acura Integras. I chose Tein for its reliability and sportability.

TEIN is among the best you can get - extremely reliable and good performance without killing your ride comfort.

the term 'damper' is just another name for shocks. the term 'coilover' tells you how the spring (a.k.a. coil) is mounted with the damper...the coil is mounted over the shock.
