I have searched on the subject and found nothing so I am starting a thread...

Does anyone have a dyno of the Stance coilovers? I'd like to see one from any member of their product line but I can't find anything!

I emailed them and never got a response.

However after doing some searcing on nasioc (yes nasioc) i actually found a shock dyno that is SUPPOSED to be from a s13 with stance gr+. The shock dyno is for the fronts:

Very linear and pretty similar to a lot of JDM shock dynos

Here I have overlaid the data of the tein flex. Interesting comparison.

Thanks guys! I emailed and also didn't get anything in return. However when I called I was able to get some information on what the dampening actually feels like and other information that will help me make my buying decision . I'm sure it's been said before but Touge Factory's staff is great(at least the guy I talked to was!).

its too bad there aren't more shock dynos out there. I'd like to get a collection of them just to compare all the popular brands.

so what does this mean?

How to read shock dyno graphs and where they come from is a google search away.

Read up.

So if the dyno above is from a reliable source, it shows that the Stance coilovers do have the wide range of dampening adjustment that some people have talked about (for rebound anyway).

right, but the problem lies in the fact that the stances (and more 'cheap' coilovers for that matter) increase the rebound so much in comparison to the compression when they're 'stiffened'

And in the fact that the force increases linearly with velocity, meaning that high speed motions such as large bumps, etc. tend to unsettle your car severely. That's why the typical JDM style damper works pretty well on smooth pavement but falls apart on bumpy surfaces- the damping isn't even close to digressive.
