I like the AGX struts, i am getting some myself. I am not a big fan of racing beat, dont get me wrong they are good but just not a fan. I am going with suspension tech sway bar kit and ground control coil over kit.

My experience with suspension, from most performance to least...

1) shocks
2) springs
3) anti-sway bars

After that, you can mess with strut tower bars and bushings.

Seems like you are always selling something. Maybe you should setup the Soul Assassin Store

i just got agx shocks and eibach prokit springs, and it makes the car bumpy as hell to ride in, but it is well worth the pickup truck ride when you get into a turn because they stick real nice

How stiff are your shocks set?

I had Tokiko 5 ways with Eibach pros and the ride quality was VERY adjustable with the shocks. You could ride on a sponge or jar your fillings out depending on the setting.
