Default Ride quality HORRIBLE after Ksport Coilover install!

Does anyone that has installed these have any tips for me? I have heard from many that installed these that ride quality was about the same or not much worse than stock. The car handles like a dream but going over bumpy roads or bridges is like riding in a rickity roller coaster.

I installed the coilovers three or four weeks ago and it was aligned immediately afterward. The camber is well within spec but the ride is so bumpy I have to grip the steering wheel tightly with both hands so it doesn't jerk out of my hands when going over a bridge on the highway. I have adjusted the shocks to minimum stiffness and there has been a minimal change in bumpiness. What was done wrong? Is it possible that something was tightened a little too tightly, like the two washers that go against the spring? Or was everyone lying when they said ride quality was close to stock?

Someone help!
