The EDFC is not there to change the height of the car. It's there so that you don't have to get out of your car and adjust the dampening of the struts. You can control it from the inside of the car and it changes the dampening force for you. If you wanna change the height of the car then ya gotta do it yourself ya know.

x2.

It is there to change the dampening force of the shocks, not the ride height.

Like I said, it's not his fault that he didn't know what it did. The question I would ask, is why did the shop that sold it to him not explain it?

Well if they did, they probably wouldn't have gotten the Job... Very simple. They let him think whatever he thinks, they get the job done, they get paid... I'm telling you there are less and less honest people these days, it seems like there's no other way to make an honest living.....

I feel really sorry for him..

ya i did misunderstand what the edfc actually did lol..stupid on my part ...but ya i guess it is pretty useful to have so i dont completely feel like it was waste

and i actually did ask one of the guys working at Pitstop performance about the EDFC awhile back and i guess he didnt know **** about it and just took a good guess and made it sound pretty inteligent...so thats how i first understood it
