Apec v. Type S suspension

I have a 06 AT. I'm considering putting either a Type S suspension on it. Pros, cons, considerations? I'd appreciate any help.

I had considered going from my 08 base suspension to an 07 Type-S suspension, but I've since backed off mainly due to the fact that it may result in a "raised" look, as our 3.2l engines are lighter than the 3.5 engine in the Type S.

Try a search. This topic is brought up weekly. In a nutshell, a-spec is firmer and lower.

Thanks - I have done the search but couldn't find it directly addressed. Much appreciated.

Weight is about the same, not enough to matter. The bigger difference is manual or auto trans.
