Koni/GC impressions

For those who have the koni's and the ground control setup what is the ride like? Is it overly harsh? I want the car to handle very well but not sure if I want to be jarred over every little bump. Is it bearable for highway driving? Thanks in advance.

I helped a friend put in the Koni insert only. At the lowest setting there was no change in the ride. Just like stock he says.

blksvx,
what firmness setting do you have it on? Is there a considerable difference in highway driving? Cornering?
