Default Comptech Sway/Tie Combo: What Setting are you running (Hard, Medium, or Soft)?!

Hey guys,
Just trying to see what position you guys are running on your comptech swaybars. Also, I think itd be helpful if you guys list what your suspension set up is as well. I'm trying to find a nuetral setup for my car... Your input would be great!

Im running GC 400F 300R w/ Konis w/ my Comptech sway/tie on the softest setting .

to be honest...i went from stock sway w/ lowering springs on stock shocks.....to tein flex and the comptech sway/tie combo....so its kinda hard for me to tell you what its like since i only know shitty and really stiff

so far i feel it does great in the rain...maybe somebody else has a better explaination

You generally want to run a softer setup in the rain compared to what you find you like in the dry.

What's wrong with good 'old trial n' error? It takes 5 minutes to change the setting.

I probably will end up just trying out all the settings... but, just wanted to hear other peoples opinions.

That's what I would do. Unless you're talking to someone with the same car, the same suspension setup, the same alignment, everything...their opinion isn't really all that helpful. And even in the same car, your preference for your driving technique might vary. Just get out there and do some testing and let us know what you think.
