Comptech Springs, Koni Yellow Shocks

I was thinking of buying some Comptech springs to lower the car about 1 1/2" in the front and 1" in the rear, but I don't know if I should purchase the Koni Shocks at the same time.

Do the Koni adjustable shocks in combination with springs improve the handling significantly over the stock suspension with Comptech springs?

P.S. I know the stock shocks will wear out faster with the comptech springs, this is purely a performance question.

Yes, the konis can be adjusted for a firmer ride.

Cool, thanks for the quick reply.

Guess I might as well get both at the same time and save myself some money for installation!

I love my setup with the Comps and the Konis, the difference is huge. Get them Definitely do both at the same time if you can to save $$

What he said!

Although I have to be honest, I have not been able to feel a difference in the rebound dampening (that is what is adjusted) between the softest setting and 1 full turn (recommended maximum).
