Default Tein coilovers

Hi I have read a lot of posts about suspension but none have really answered my question. I want what most people want, to lower the car but not need to use a kidney belt to drive the car because it is to bumpy. So my question is I am looking at the Tein coilover systems but cant work out which set to buy
DSG08-KUSS2 $1250 or this one DSG08-LUSS2 $890.

Reading the specs I can only make out that the first one allows you to use the EDFC and the second set does not. The car is a 2000 S4 sedan. Has anyone tried either one of these sets and if so how did you go? I dont want to track the car,Ijust want to make it look like it is not a HUMMER and handle a little better.

the basic tein coilover system is just as good u dont need the EDFC it would b nice to have one in ur car to control the damping force of ur car but i really dont think u will need it unless u like the stiffness of ur car on default then its fine if u dont like it then i would say get the EDFC also.

I'm pretty sure they don't have EDFC for our cars yet.

i just installed the Tein Basic(DSG08-LUSS2) on my 00 S4two weeks ago and i loved it..."to me"...the ride is pretty firm with little cushion damping not boucing...i had it set as the highest the system wouldgo i think...got about 1in gap between fenders and tires...is sitting at 25.25inches from fender to the ground all around on the stock 225/45-17...i can go as low as 2inches or more all around...got the alignment done and i got -1.7 camber in front and -1.3 camber in the back...which is not bad at all...it handle really good...no lean...oversteer or understeer...but i got h&r rear sway bar...i hope this help answer your question.
