Is there a difference in tension for springs made for Del Sol's and Civics'?

Default Springs Questions

I know that the parts are interchangeable as far is fitting goes but would it really matter to use springs (made specifically for civics) to use on Del sols? I found a great deal for used Neuspeed sports springs for $75 (part# 55.20.17), but their tension is specifically for 92-95 civics. Will there be a problem?

The Delsol platform is similar to the 5th Generation civic. For example, the Delsol VTEC chassis code is "EG2"

You can use the same springs as EG Civics and DC2 Integras.

They're effectively the same, and spring rates do not differ by chassis, but instead differ by manufacturer and their spec. Manufacturers basically make one set of springs for all three cars.

Why would neuspeed create different part numbers for the same type of springs? I checked their website and it had a different part number. Is it just a marketing scheme?
