Sway bars are the things that keep your car level when you go around a tough corner. When you take an off-ranp at this point you can push....50-60? With sways you can take it at 50+ 10+ mph. The CL handles well, but if you get springs and sways, you can find amazing handling. I had a Prelude before and loved the CL power but the "Old man" sway around corners wouldn't stand. I LOVE my cars handling now after springs (lower by 1 inch) and sways...ask for pics.
My opinion is do springs and sways at the same time...for $1K at ACURA you can have it done (play tough, I did) and then you feel good about after market parts. If you are going to do anything Comptech, go through DEAN (on the forum)...go to the Comptech Parts part of the forum and post something. He works for a shop that is WAY freindly to this forum. Even with shipping it works out better. Buy the stuff you want, find an Acura place that deals in Comptech and go...or, if not, find a speed shop. The shop will be cheaper but I "sleep better" with the work done at Acura.
PM me with any questions....
