Need help with different settings for TEIN SS with EDFC

I am new to this forum and I have a 2008 Acura TL Type-S and I just installed the TEIN SS and EDFC. I was hoping people who have this can tell me the different settings they use for the EDFC. Like daily driving, and taking corners more agressively.

Is 16 in the middle or the softest setting? would it be easy to bottom out on the softest setting?

16 is the softest setting and I do bottom out when I hit those crazy bumps on the 405 lol

but yeah Im pretty much the same as sT04Louis. Usually keep it on 16, stiffen it up a tad if people are in the car, and rarely ever go full stiff unless I want to feel like I am in a go-kart

just wondering for everyone else how dramatic are the differences between levels I can feel a difference however to me its pretty subtle.

I usually run 4 front 6 rear daily.

From one level to the next its not that much difference, but like I can tell the difference between full soft and full stiff. Also it depends on how fast I am going. If I am flying over bumps on the freeway at 80mph I can tell the difference a lot better than if I am driving down a smooth road at 25mph.

P.S. We have some massive freakin bumps right here on the 405 freeway northbound and like Wilshire if I hit them in the middle lane on full stiff at like 80-90mph I think I can catch air.
