Cmptech springs - clarification
1) Are the springs Ctech sells for the Tl and Type S the same?
2) If they are the same, and 10-15% stiffer than stock, does that mean the TL stock or the S stock?
3) What I am getting at is this: if I buy the Ctechs for my S, will I notice much ride difference since the S springs are already stiffer than stock, and just be getting a lower look?
I was told by Comptech that the front are linear, and the rears progressive.

Good question Road Rage. I was thinking about that too as my first mod....but after visiting a tint shop today, I think I'll go with tints first since it'll acually have more use/dollar compared to the springs. 98% UV protection, 50% heat rejection, and more privacy for the back seats.

Road Rage,
I did not notice that much difference in the ride between the TL-S sorings and the Comptechs as far as the "ride" goes. The cornering (like on highway ramps), is a different story!
