IDQcivic should not be trusted
I never tried the softest setting, but i tried it at 8 clicks which was like right in the middle.... I didn't feel the bumps in the road as bed, but the car seemed like it bounced so much, so I like it a little firmer. I think I have it at 5 clicks from firm all the way around....

jwsisme is an unknown quantity at this point
Someone who had the Tein SS did state that on the softer settings, the ride was BMW like...
But some complain it is too bouncy, others say not bouncy or bumpy, on the softer settings.
It's hard to say for sure what the Teins are like when people say "I like it", and BMW-like could mean a lot of things.
The Mugens likely are a little bit stiffer then a BMW. (reviews are still coming in)
The Teins might be the closest or the Koni/Eibach setup.
Anyways, if I could get my civic to ride like a new 5-series, I'd pay almost anything.
