I hope you mean you've got $400 in ur pocket for a decent drop
get the h&r sports, the comptech's sag in the rear

if you mean comptech's for $400 installed NO WAY, the springs are $99 + shipping

Damn they're only 99$, I paid 150$ for my progress and they were on discount. I had mine installed professionally by Excellerate, he charged me for 3 hours of work and I think it look a bit longer than that.

Certainly seemed like an eternity for me since I was stuck waiting, I ended up walking two towns over by foot, eating, bought sneakers and some clothes, and did a bunch of other stuff.

I spent more money during the time I waited than the install cost was.

yeah actually $400 total for the springs and the install.. the springs for the comptech are $165 and the labor is $225. But if i go with the eibach or HNR it will be closer to $500. Ive read other threads pertaining to this and a lot of sagging for those with the comptech....so i think i'm a go with the other option.... i guess you get what you pay for huh? but check this out......i have 20's on my TL and got an outstanding deal on Falken 245/30 tires for only $171/tire....full install and balancing, warrantee and all for $807 out the door! The nittos or the nitto gens don't come that cheap. lowest i found was $209/ tire

Comptech springs are made by Eibach so they should be the same.....
