Default 99-00 si stock springs better then................

sprint springs?? I have some sprint springs on my 96 ex. I have a b18c1 in my car, so my first question is would the si springs fit, and would they be better ( higher spring rate) then the sprint springs? This is for a dail driven car that goes to the dragstrip about 1 time a week.btw the si springs are free, from my brother, thats why I'm asking.

Why not just put on your stock springs then? I'm sure the SI springs have higher spring rate but the height will literally still be the same with your 96 EX springs.

Si springs won't drop it at all (which I don't know if that's an issue). They also still have a fiar amount of dive/roll to them. Since I'm not familiar w/ Sprints, I can't vouch for them...

The si springs will only be on temporarily. I plan on getting a good shock/spring combo. I just figured since I have a b18c1 in my car, that shocks/springs made for the si would be better then say, springs made for an ex, being that the si has a heavier motor than a single cam.
