I think you should man up and make your own decisions. This subject has been covered over and over. Search the forums guy and you will find your answer. Who cares what people here think. Do what you do and eat off that spoon.

I have the Fortune Auto 500 super down lows for my 14 and they are amazing. Don't know about Feals, therefor I'm biased :wiggle:

I would say FEAL, only for the service and convenience of dealing locally really. Realistically the shock and adjuster design is probably idnetical or extremely similar between the two brands. That leaves the difference to valving and service. I have heard good reviews of Odi's valving and the company's service in general. I would call them to discuss the setup YOU want for YOUR car and APPLICATION, rather than just buying the standard setup randomly online. With FEAL you've got that option...

shocks you can service/re-valve locally? No brainer to me.

For the most part, FAs are also made to order. You can get custom spring rates and have the dampener revalved for those rates for no extra fee. The only catch is they dont readily have higher spring rate swift springs readily available so they'd have to order them and add an extra 3 days on the build time.

Fortune all day.
But as Daniel said, this topics been covered a million times, go search for yourself and make up your own mind.

What is the difference? They both look the same, they even use the same colour scheme. I would not be surprised if they are the same, with the main difference being in each company valving the dampers in-house to suit the individual car models, which ultimately is probably not that much of a difference either.
Go with whatever you can get a better deal on.

Go with FEAL. Odi is local to you. That's one of the reasons why I put Fortunes on my car. Relatively close to me if I needed them serviced so that means a quicker turnaround time

Doesn't Feal rebuild Many different brands of coilovers not just their own.

I was asking which of the 2 specific coilovers people prefer you fucking idiot. No one has asked that question^ Do you have to fucking comment? Just close the page instead of wasting your time. Have a good one.

Huh?
Feal...
Let me specify. The OP is located in Socal. Thats where Odi is located. Odi builds FEAL coil overs.
Fortune Auto is located on the East coast. Thats where I live. So I decided to get FA coil overs because they are much closer to me than any company based out of Southern California. Make sense?
If you want to slam your car then get fortune, feal are I guess you can say are more for performance then for slamming your car

Im pretty sure Odi can modify the feal coilovers to make them go low

Both coilovers are dual heighth adjustable. As in the ride heighth is adjustable separately from the spring pre-load. Both coilovers should go just as low. Only the length of the spring could limit it in the front with that design. In the rear shock length could be an issue, but any of these china shocks are pretty damned short.
