    EDFC (Electronic Damping Force Controller) makes it possible to control the feel of the car's suspension from the driver's seat with the push of a button. In this suspension upgrade, small servo-motors installed at each shock absorber respond to commands from the dash-mounted control module, allowing the driver to make precise suspension adjustments on the fly. Since the damping force can be controlled with ease to meet different situations, the driver can enjoy variations in the suspension, from hard performance/handling settings to a soft comfortable ride -- and anywhere in between. This upgrade continues the suspension enhancements that began on this Ford Focus SVT in Tricked Out episode 204 with the addition of aftermarket coil-over struts.
