Just installed the Comptech springs

And I dont regret it one bit. The ride isnt bad at ALL. I was actually very happy with it. It was definitely worth the investment. I havent had a chance to take it out, and take some crazy turns, but I did notice that my takeoff was better. I recommend these springs to anybody that wants a decent drop with a little loss in ride quality. You would have to ride in it to know what I'm talking about.

Why not, you can always take them off and sell them....without too much of a loss!

The reason why I chose the Comptech over the Eibach, is because the eibach drops the car a little more then the Comptech. I actually prefer the raked look on the Comptech springs because I have a heavy system in the back, and with the springs it looks more even. The reason why I did not choose the H&R OEs is because they drop the rear more then the front. I believe that the Comptech springs are a perfect drop for our cars. Not too low, but low enough to look good. I'll take some pics, and post them.

I agree with you spiro. The Comptech springs definitely looks better, especially with the slight rake. I too notice right off as you accelerate you don't get this dipping action. As for the turns it is tighter with hardly any lean. I'm considering sways but was wondering now that the car does handle better wondering whether sways are needed. With the Comptech springs it makes your car look like it suppose to look. Enjoy the ride.

If you think the springs are good now, wait until you get the sways. Night and Day in combo with the springs.
