Tein SS, EDFC & R50 compatibility

I have an R50 and want to maximize the strengths of my Cooper, including the suspension. I am considering the Tein SS w/ EDFC unit, and Ireland Engineering camber plates. Can some one tell me if:

1. the Tein SS' are compatible with the R50
2. the EDFC unit is compatible with any camber plate, especially the IE camber plates.

Thanks in advance for any advice,

well, first you might consider moving this thread to 1st generation suspension mods

now, i have done research into the subject, while tein does list compatiability with EDFC, the truth is that there simply isn't room. especially the rear (where you need it most!), not without major interior modifications including trimming the interior panels

that said, if someone has done it feel free to prove me wrong
