I have a feeling the american kits might have more adjustment as mine has 28 clicks available........i\'ve checked and double checked.......and its always 28 clicks.........anybody have any ideas?:wave

The instruction manual states that from the hardest setting (fully clockwise) you should never go past 16 clicks anti-clockwise as this can damage the damper.  It will click past that point though.  The US stuff may have different settings though but I doubt the actual range would be different - just more clicks in between the ends...

what sort of maximum drop does this kit offer?

Check out http://www.tein.co.uk, it has lots of information, but as you asked: -

Tein Flex
Ride height adjustable range (mm)
Front +20 <--> -70
Rear 0 <--> -80
