Post Anyone in SF Bay Area with comptech springs?

I want to check out your TL with comptech springs. I'd like to feel what it does to the car if possible.

Thanks!

Hehe... I know. I need to offer some incentive... How about free test runs with my Gtech power meter to measure HP, 0-60, 1/4 mile, braking, etc... We can test out your mod and compare them to mine...

I'm waiting on the springs myself. I just need someone to visually confirm that its the proper drop I want. (1.25 front and 1.0 rear) I measured ground clearance around parking lots and noticed that the front end has barely a little more than an inch of clearance if you pull all the way up to the curb almost touching your front wheels. I'm basically trying to avoid ruining my front lip by accidentally touching the curb if the car is too low.

Do people in The City have more sensitive posteriors than the rest of us?

I've yet to see a Japanese hot rod with a rainbow sticker. Those stickers are usually found on Subaru station wagons. Nothing against subarus... I almost bought a WRX but decided to get TL instead.
