megans give you the advantage of adjustable damper settings, the basics are a well proven racing setup. If it's just a street car, I'd probabally go with the megans, but for racing, teins. Well, if I were to get a set for racing, I'd just save some more money and get a set of tein flex.

If you want more information on the tein basics, I suggest you talk to zillinois, he tracked on basics for a while.

the basics are proven on the race track? i have them and like them but wasn't aware of that. but those megans do look interesting. same price with dampening
