I got the Koni SA's from Strano Performance here on this board. Same money, and when you need set-up advice (and you will), Sam is happy to help. The instruction sheet that comes with the Koni's looks like gibberish, so they're not much help. You've chosen the right shocks, just call Sam and he'll fix you up.

I was looking at another shock absorber website yesterday, and it appears that Koni markets a package that includes their shocks and Eibach springs.

That's what happens when you look at other websites. No, Koni does not make a kit like that. Koni doesn't even use Eibach springs on any of their suspension kits (and they don't even make a "kit" for these cars).

That's just someone slapping together some parts and marketing it as a kit. I could do the same thing, but prefer to--discuss the setup first to make sure whatever we do it the correct thing.
