I dont have my SI yet waiting on the 08's but I'm thinking to stick with my tired and true combo with all my Hondas.
H&R sports, with Koni yellows. DD.
Yes the rear camber does increase as the rear suspension compressses or is lowered. Infinity NO, THere is a limit until there becomes running issues, and that is why proper camber is important.

If you look at the OEM spec's, Honda has setup these specs to pretty much allow for NO camber up front. And about -1 degree in the rear. Why? So your car understeers. This is so the car is safe for you to drive without the waggin the tail all over the place. This also does not allow for good turn in or a "fun" car to drive.

Koni's are truly a great damper....I would suggest the Ground controls though they are slightly more aggresive and are ride height adjustable

Redleg06Si-I don't know I would say no depending on the offset but a search would result better answers than that...:)
