Look a little harder at what type of coilovers GTM installed.

He was looking for a good daily driven car with a little more spring in her step and more agility while maintaining a comfortable ride. Willie dropped the car off himself and gave us a couple weeks to complete the work. Here is the end result.

No type of review for the Tein coilovers, but at least he didn't mind the colors
The endorcement was nice, though.

i would appreciate it if you guys let me know whats the best deal for the buck
I enjoy my Tanabe Pros0c... I got it for less than 900$ which is nice. I had megans on my other cars and they are stiff... I still have them actually. And the reason why I got tanabes on my G37 cause of some reviews I saw here. And the fact that Tanabe's coilover is pretty comfortable something I want when I take the G out for a drive.

So I think the tanabe is a good deal for me.

Which CO's will benefit those equipped with Forced Induction? does that factor matter when searching for the right CO SET?

Stance is good, Tein is crap, and Tanabe is ok.

Thanks for the feedback Casey. I might just purchase the kw-v1, as my car is AWD.
