It sounds like you are changing only the damper, but not the springs. If that’s right, spring rate won’t be changing.
The problem here is that you will have one tune up front, and another out back. The oem damper will control the spring a specific way. The rear will be a different tune, giving you a different feeling and rate of control. Depending on the setup, it may be vastly different. The front end may then feel controlled and tight, while the back end may feel like its rolling over in comparison. Then again, you may not notice it much. Its hard to say as I have zero erxpereince with the TSX suspension.
In general though I’d say it’s not a good idea. Shock manufactures (if they are any good) build a damper set with a specific tune that works on a car. By only installing half of it, you may get an odd feeling car as a result. I really don’t think the dampers you are talking about will make it night and day, but I am sure you will feel the difference while driving.
