sprint racing or comptech springs

I am looking to get some springs, which would you guys suggest. Comptechs are $265 I think and only lowers about 1.25" front and 1" rear. Sprint are $225 lower front 1.5" and rear 1.5".

Are the sprints linear or progressive?

1.5 even drop is okay but if you want even drop migt as well get a 2.0" even drop which would be, what, H&R or Eibach?

Comptech gives a nice rake though. I had them and they were great springs.

Comptechs are progressive, this means that they give up a little handling for ride.....linear springs are the thing for handling, but sometimes they can beat you up on the ride aspect. Better to go with progressive springs in the CL.
