Question Eibach anti-roll kit or Comptech sways ???

I’m looking into either the Eibach anti-roll kit or the Comptech sways for my Type-S.


Any thoughts on one over the other? Price is relatively close so that’s not an issue.


BTW: yes, I know Comptech will be “okay” with the dealership but I want the better kit for my car.


Also, if Comptech didn't have it's association with Honda/Acura, would you still recommend them?


Thanks for any input.

I know the Eibachs have...

Front: 27 mm (tn)
Rear: 23 mm (sn)

That's from Eibach's web-site.



I've read that Comptech has the following:

Front: 27 mm
Rear: 22 mm

Didn't see it on Comptech's web-site so I can't confirm.

the comptech front sway is less hollow than the eibach one, but the rear sway on the eibach is thicker than the comptech, which is better.

i believe the eibach sways are about $340 on tirerack.com

So pretty much they are *about* the same. Eibach is a bit stiffer.

I guess then it'll come down to which name brand I'd rather have on my mod list. :o

I've heard the main concern with our cars is the rear which will make the difference so that's why I went with the Eibach (plus there red) Ü if you really want the best then get the Neuspeed SOLID frt + RACE rear. 27mm frt + 25mm rear.

Since they are about the same AND about the same price, I'd go with Comptech since Comptech has a longer history with Honda/Acura products. For one I know that their bushings result in a quiet ride, not sure about Eibach or Neuspeed.

Well I'm going with Eibach since the rear is thicker than Comptech. I like thick rears. :licka:
