I think its a shite design to start with.
Fitting comp struts does not create a harsh ride. It is the way that people don't run a roll bar with them and then have to run stupidly hard spring rates to stop excess roll that creates a hard ride.
running compression struts makes the car very very noisey and harsh to drive
because you are removing all bushings between the tca and the floor of the car, so all road noise is transmitted directly to the floor pan.
the first time i drove mine on comp struts i thought i had broken something, seriously!, every single bump in the road, ends up as a bang on the floor. i never changed any spring rates, or any other settings, they make a horrible road car imo, and i know a lot of people dont run them for this very reason
but the tcas made no difference at all to ride quality imo
