^^^James is right, spring compressors are about as useful as a flotation device in the desert. Just put a towel on it to help protect whatever. Stechs are alright for stock struts but at some point i would defintely get some new ones

 

S techs arent going to lower you very much...i think its going to leave you wanting more. If it were me id go with some coilovers...GC Coilovers are really nice and you can get some that will work with your stock struts if your on that much of a budget. Otherwise get some that will work with koni's. Dont go with KYB! I was thinking about getting some then i looked at shock comparisons and they are worse than stock!

 

I have them, and they're definitely not worse than stock.

 

look at shock dyno....theyre not very good...and on some cars it is worse than stock shocks.

 

You show me a shock dyno showing that KYB's are worse than stock and i'll consider the possibility. I actually HAVE the KYB AGXs, and have had the stock shocks, and the AGXs were a significant improvement in handling over the stock shocks.

I know they're not that great when compared to brands like Koni and Bilstein, but they are definitely better than stock.
