i had some on my 03 cl and they were STIFF, but it sure let you feel the road. Wouldn't recommend for dd if you have crappy roads

IDK if they make BC's for EVO's.. but i was between Ksports and BC's and chose the BC's because they're inverted.

Not all BCs are inverted.

On a side note, I have a set of BC coilovers for sale if you are interested.

Ksport has inverted too (gt-pro). They softened up the spring rates a lot so the ride is nice. We have installed plenty of them, great bang for the buck and the ride is not too aggressive.

I have the kontrol pro's on my DD Honda Ek Hatch and their great. I have them pretty good right now for DD, not soft but not super stiff. I can go another 2 full turns to full stiff and let me tell you they are rock solid at full stiff and they handle like a champ. I cant say anything about any other companies but I have nothing but good things to say about these.

Comparing anything to the S-tech is almost like apples to oranges. They are the worst springs out for the evo by far. For a DD, I would recommend Swift or Work springs on MR Bilteins. Many people can vouch for this setup. But if adjustability is what you're looking for, I'm all for the PIC Performance/Pure Tuning setup as entry level. If budget allows, Ohlins!
