air compressor isn't necessary but I'm all about working smart, not working hard. You'll love the short shifter, great mod!

^I'M TELLING!!!

seriously though - you can do it without the compressor (like when i did the spring swap on my car) but as i recall the only fun part about that...was accidently letting the nut on top of the strut shoot off and almost tear through my friends'(Renesis SE3P, John) jacket

Atilla; if you know who doesn't sign up for this, you might have to "accidentally" forget to preload his springs.
