sorry for not being for clear, i dont think konis or other expensive shocks would help becasuse i have the stock springs, but i was lookings for a recomendation on shocks that would tighten up my handling with stock springs without going overboard, the 30 dollar a piece ones not the 100 dollars ones, i did search " stocks stock springs" and didn't find any recomendations,
if im wrong about the koni type shocks with stocks springs let me know

the theres another thread in the 3rd gen forum with the same question that i have, i think its titled "shock and springs question" or something or that sort, but everybody recomends koni and the such for his stock springs, i guess it comes down to if konis on stock springs are a good investment or not, ill search and be bacck sorry for the piece o **** question

Why not try KYB Gr-2s??? They aren't nearly the $$ investment that Konis are...
They are about 30% stiffer than OEM.

I have eibachs with KYB GR2s. I've only had them on for about a month now but so far so good. Handling is much improved and looks good too. You can see pics on my homepage.
Brandon90gxe is also running the same setup and loves it
DA-MAX has KYB with sprint springs and is happy with it too
