Coilover Help

I'm knocking out all my suspension right now and want to do coilovers. I'm looking at BC, because I will not be tracking my car alot. I just want it for the handling and being able to lower my car just a little. What are others experiences with BC. Also, does anyone have the MPD1 hood with any coilovers? Eric said they would fit if you took the adjustment knob off. I pretty sure the BC's are capable of this. Right?
Thanks for any input.

They should be removable. Just need a wrench to take them on and off.

Yes they come off. I have the ER double adjustables and have served me well through a lot of abuse. BR's should be all you need.

Their customer support is depressing but the products are good and they can be rebuilt.

The Bc coilovers are great for the street, my friend has a set on his SS and he swears by them, he says he cant believe how sloshy the stock suspension is after living with the BC's

You should like them. Be advised you will notice the bad roads and bumps more and the car will move up and down over bumps, react more quickly, then before. Not harsh or anything unless you want it to be with the settings, just that the stiff springs make it that way, like drop springs. My supercars are the same but you will like the solid comfortable ride, the better handling and tuning is fun, have mine so it reacts very neutrally now.you can set them for slow speed crappy roads, or firm them up some for the freeway, no bouncy ride.
