just got h-sport springs and comp rear sway bar




Got them installed at helix last week but didn't get to really test them out until the other day. Ride was a little more bumpy at first but it must've went away or i'm already used to it. Turns are twice as fun now, makes me feel like i'm hitting turns too slow . Thanks to eric@helix again. I'll post pix when i get to wash the car

Sounds like a nice setup, but what made you go with the Comp bar over the regular upgraded model? Do you have a front bar in, and what setting did you have them set it on? I am looking to do the H-Sport springs and the 19mm rear bar on middle or tightest setting, but wouldn't want to go any firmer in the rear without balancing the front out too... Your take on this?

For a minute there I thought you had a lift, and was thinking lucky *******

Then I saw Helix had done the work. Have fun!

I heard that a number of people that have the sport had their settings on the stiffest and people who had the comp. had it on the softest so i figured to might as well go with the comps.. Eric suggested i try it on the middle setting and i'm pleased with it so far. There are several posts in this forum regarding the front sway bars, right now i don't believe that i need them
