Tein High Tech springs

I know I probably won't find much info here, but I already checked ClubRSX. Just wondering if any of you might have these springs on your RSX. And if you have any pictures of your car with them on, please post them.

I'm trying to choose between the Tein High Tech springs (front: 1.1" rear: 0.8") and the Mugen Sport Suspension (front and rear: 1.4")

I've already seen pics of RSX's with the Mugen SS, I just need to see RSX's with the Tein High Techs.

Any help/info would be great.

Tein high tech springs recently came out for dc5 and ep3.
Not sure about Mugen SS though. Drop isn't low enough for my liking.
I'd get Tein SS over Mugen SS...

I was thinking about going with Tein SS, but to be honest, I'd feel as if I won't be taking full advantage of the coilovers because I don't auto-x. I like the fact that the Mugen SS is non-adjustable and the drop is what I'm sorta looking for.

I guess I should also mention the price difference between the two.

Tein High Tech (springs): $200
Mugen Sport Suspension (springs and shocks): $1000

If thats the case.
Buy mugen suspension.
You will have to replace oem shocks eventually with aftermarket springs.
