Depends on cell count - lower is higher flow... but realistically you arien't going to tell the diff one from another... and if you did back to back dynos its doubtful you would see enough difference to matter.

Question. If I get sway bars is it really worth it to upgrade the endlinks? About how long would the oem ones last when aftermarket sways are installed

^^ I've had my OEM links running with Stillen sways for about a year and a half (I drive year-round) -- no breakage yet. I think they'll hang in, but I definitely want to get some adjustable ones since my drop puts the OEMs at odd angles so they probably won't work/last as well as they should.

I just installed a FUJITA intake on my 03 sedan. Is there anything else I need to do? Like resetting the ECU...cause it seems like the car is still trying to adjust....

I have the same setup, so far no issues.

No harm in resetting the ECU.

^I'm trying to remember... off the top of my head, I was thinking h-techs were almost the same drop as z-springs (~1") in which case the Z shocks would be fine.

the idea would be to just go slightly lower so the front would look even with the rear

hrm htechs are 1.38" front .67" rear

rates are 320/260

s-techs 1.97/1.26 360/270

stock z 314/427(revised)

maybe slapping sedan s-techs on the z shocks wouldnt be the worst idea...
