Curious...does your car have a rear spoiler? The added weight would render the OEM springs useless as far as crisp trunk raising/lowering operation.

I remember when I ordered a spoiler for my wife's prelude, it came with a thicker torsion spring to allow for the added weight at the trunk lid.

Anyway, I think there are a series of notches available to stretch the springs a bit more for additional tension.
