Go with Koni adjustables on the front and back and use Strano springs or Eibach. The car will handle very well on the street and around the turns.

I tried Edels IAS shocks and I like'em...alot. It was either them or Stranos Bilsteins. I'll try his next time. I heard the SLP Bilsteins are good too.

if you don't want to lower the car...or not much...Koni's are a GREAT upgrade.

even on stock springs they will drastically improve handling. and if you do the lower perch and heater hose mod...you'll drop about 1/2" in height.

but if you DO want to lower the car....strano springs or BMR springs are good sets, and then mated with Koni shocks all around
