Sweet man!! Welcome to the DC5 club!! I bought an 06 NBP 2 weeks ago and im still waiting on delivery!!! Should be here next weekend for sure!! Megans are good from what i've heard and they are a good price however, it depends on how low you want to go. Ive heard with the Megans you'll still have a 2 1/2 finger gap in the front. I would say go with Tein. Thats going to be my first mod as well I already have my money ready for the mods.... Just waitin on the damn car! Get some pics up asap!

IMO Tein Flex is an all around great coilover setup. The lowering spring is seperate from the preload so as you go lower the ride doesn't get harsher like with the Tein SS-P's.
