I have been Totally happy with Comptech quality.

I currently have the following on my 96 Integra LS:
Comptech 4-2-1 header
Comptech Ice Box (waiting to be installed this weekend!!)
Comptech Rear Tie Bar/Sway bar combo (Looks awesome and works great!)

I just replaced my GS-R strut bar with a Nuespeed front strut bar that looks like the Comptech strut bar.. and I think that it looks awesome and it is stiffer than the GS-R bar.

Comptech ROCKS! :rockon:

I just put my ice box on a couple days ago. It does make it quieter but i still like the sound. I have a 95 gsr and the install was pretty easy but the ice box did not fit as well as i would have hoped.

The passenger side bracket was too close to the abs system and kinda hard to get it in there.

But performance wise i cant tell a difference, sounds sick though.

I have the following Comptech items: Icebox and 4-2-1 TIG header. Both products have been on the car for about a 1/2 year. So far I am very satisfied with both products.

However, I did have a couple of installation problems with the Icebox. I also had a problem with the passenger side bracket. To solve the problem, I cut out a little notch, and it fit fine. Also, I intially had a hard time having the top completely close. I found that the key was to push the filter forward when snapping on the top.

Comptech 4-2-1 TIG welded header
Comptech Cat-back
Comptech Springs
Comptech Sway bar/tie bar combo
Comptech Front strut tower bar


I'm very happy with the quality of their products. and the exhaust sounds GOOOOOOD!
The swaybar/tie bar combo is
and to the guy who said their springs were expensive...how much did you pay? :thinking: I chose Comptech because they were comparable to the Eibach Pro-kit, but much cheaper.

The sway bar setting to the HARDEST is the ONLY way that I would have it on my car. =).. but then again, I Autocross.. and Throttle-off oversteer is something I desired. =)
If you do not know what Throttle-Off Oversteer is, then I would suggest the Soft or Middle setting. =)

Thank you, drive through please.

I just didn't expect it to oversteer like that...and BAM!...right into the curb.
