is there only one set of comptech springs available for cl's? and is it the one that lowers 1.75 in the front and 1.00 in the back? and would i need new shocks for these springs? i found them at www.autocarparts.com

The Comptech springs are actually interchangeable between the TL/CL and Accord. You don't necessarily have to get new shocks for these. I also thought they only lower 1.25" in front and 1" in rear.

Exactly, the Comptech site is off, most people have reported about 1.75" front / 1.25" rear. But, if you look at all the pics, people seem to be getting different drops with the Comptechs, some more raked than others. I got mine installed last Friday and my CL doesn't really look much lower up front than in the back, looks pretty even, even though the front is slighty lower.

 

so with the 1.5/1.0 drop, would i need i need new shocks? and is that low enough so that i wouldn't feel as boaty in the car? or would i need to lower it even more?

The boaty feeling is definitely cured with the Comptechs, I've only had them in a couple days, but you notice the difference immediately. The steering's tighter and gives a bit more confidence going into turns and when switching lanes at high speeds. I left my stock shocks in for now b/c I didn't want to waste the extra money for Konis,but when they give out, I'm getting Konis. Most people have the Comptechs with stock shocks so this isn't a problem, but you will have to replace them eventually.

 

Sink the whole boat...get the sways!
