megan usually swaps out the cartridge, is cheaper for them to do that than rebuild your coils. unless you want custom valving and tuning which is different.

custom valving means you can tune in specific damper characteristics on a dyno graph. revalving with factory settings but adjusting to higher or lower spring rates so the shocks dont blow out. so you can have tein basics, have custom valving and make it handle completely different from the original form. or several companies that offer custom spring rates, adjust the dampers to the spring rates. hope that helps
