Comptech Sway Bars
I wanted to say thanks to everyone who recomended the Comptech sway bars, I just got them installed today, and I must say the do make a difference!
I took it around turns and freeway exits which loop, and you can feel that the car responds to your needs.. much better over stock.
I currently have stock tires, In my opinion, I think the car would perform better with some upgraded tires.But in any event Good recomendation form everyone who said to get the comptech sway bars... Thanks guys!

The shocks are real good, stiffens the ride, but not drastic and handles good. I have them in the number "4" setting, they feel good to me, stiff but still a smooth ride (I like a real stiff suspension though) I just changed them to the number "5" setting today, I will let you know if it makes a difference.

I got them installed at Motorsport Tehniques in Hayward, Ca (for those bay area people) (510) 783-8383 They charged me $130.00 for install..took them about 2 hours to do. I know it's pricey but I am enjoying them

hey H4mm3rm4n... how do you like the exhaust? Is it the comptech one? Do you feel an increase in power? How loud is it?
Sorry for the questions, but I thinking of this being my next upgrade.

Hey, Marioman...I responded to your other topic with the four questions you asked about the Comptech exhaust. The short answer: two thumbs up!
