Default tokico & h&r 'race' bouncing

hello,

i recently had tokico illuminas and H&R race springs installed on my 2000 civic ex.

so far, i am not very impressed with them. my car is bouncy even if the settings are on 3.

i am not certain if the shop put the stock bump stops on the front shocks. if they didn't, would this have a big impact on the ride quality?

i expected the ride to be far better than it is. do any of you guys have this problem?

any idea what could be causing this?

I think you were right to suspect the bumpstops.

I had the same setup on my old hatch, rode great.

Thanks!

Out of curiosity, how long did you have them on your hatch?

I've had this same setup on my EJ2 for 3 months now. I love it. Did you buy your shocks used?
