Comptech or Neuspeed sways??? VOTE!!!

Which ones should I get???

I know where to get the Comptechs from (Dean, are you listening ), but where's the best place to get the Neuspeeds if that's what the majority thinks is better.

Thanks!

which rear Neuspeeds (19mm or 25mm)?

Call Eibach and ask them about their sway set. last time I called them they said it was on the boat.

Probably the 19mm.. Don't think I'd go with the 25mm with no warranty.

Never tried others, but I can vouch for Comptech.. the before and after is like night and day difference. But not so much to where you loose the luxury feel to the car ride.

there's no reason to get the 19 mm rear sway. your stock sway is 19mm. (If you have a type S)

Call Eibach and tell us what there excuse is today.

Eibachs are still in prototype status.

The bars are DONE, but they're still waiting on "hardware". The dood said they can't get the parts.

Doh! I voted for Neuspeed...but...if you DONT plan on getting the 25mm one, then you shouldn't even buy the Neuspeed at all. As for warranty...I guarantee it...hypothetically if the Comptechs break your endlink rods, I'm almost 100% possitive that won't be covered by any sort of warranty.

BTW...OEM endlink rods are around $20 each.

Shouldn't some ordinary car grease take care of that?

Depends on your driving style. If you like your women old and loose, stick to stock. Like them firm, and cougarish, get Comptech. If you'd like the tight little supermodel that get's your heart pumping, go Neuspeed.

What is this all about? Is there an upgrade available?

Neuspeed has 2 rear sway bars available for the cls. the thickest one is the rear 25 mm but it does not come with any warrenty and its a bit more expensive then the 19 mm rear. This is one of the main reasons why people decide to go for the comptechs. Edgalang and myself have this rear 25mm sways and so far neither one of us have had any problems with it. Also the 25mm neuspeed is the thickest rear sway bar that i have seen for the cls.

Advantage of Comptech *front* sway over stock?

I'm facing a similar bind about deciding what sway bars to buy. I'm wondering if anyone has tried installing and driving with just the Comptech *rear* sway bar and the stock front sways? The reason I ask is because I'm trying to see if the Comptech front sway bar adds anything beyond the stock stay, since it is the same size as stock and is also semi-hollow, whereas the Neuspeed front sway is solid. I'm wondering if all the advantages of the Comptech sways comes from the rear sway bar, in which case you're basically buying a whole kit for the same performance gain that just the rear bar would have provided. Of course, I have no evidence of this at all, which is why I'm asking.

I wish Comptech sold their sway bars separately! I read someone who felt great gains going with a Neuspeed front and Comptech rear sways. Or I wish that Neuspeed had a rear sway that was sized between the 19mm and the 25mm.

And then the redesigned Eibach anti-roll kit that is supposed to be coming out soon just adds to the dilemma.
