No, I didn't need to use one when I installed them.

They might pop just a little, because I had to push down a bit on it when installing them, but they're nowhere near as long as the stock spring. I had to use the compressor to remove the stocks, but not to put the Eibachs on. So if I could get the tophats on without a compressor, you shouldn't have a problem removing them.
