Dont even bother cutting the springs. If you are going to the effort of removing the stockers, might as well upgrade them while you are in there. Not only will the ride quality suck, but you will also have the infamous 'honda hop'.

You do not get the Honda hop if you don't cut too much. You can safely cut 1 coil from the bottom of the front coil and 1.25 coils from the top of the rear coil. I did this and the ride is ok. I will be getting some other springs however as I would like to take the Formula out to TWS sometime. I tried the SLP Eibachs but did not like the combo.
