Cobb is not known for their suspension so much as their engine stuff. For springs, you may want to check out the new RCE(race comp engineering) springs which look very promising. I will be testing and reviewing them in a couple weeks. Some stock STI struts are plenty good for the street and quite nice. For sways, look into whiteline and hotchkis. My personal recomendation is the get the same size front and rear as it makes the car rotate better. Some gruppe N top mounts will helps things too. And they key to making it all come together is a good alignment with some negative camber...at least a degree if not more. Always a little less negative camber in the rear than the front. As much negative camber as you can stand in teh front is what takes care of a lot of understeer. I personally run -3.25 degrees, but thats a bit extreme. With all this it will be a different car. If you want to go more extreme, then step it up to a good set of coilovers, but only if you are going to spend the money for the good stuff.

Also, there is a pretty good alternative setup at a great price in the F/S section right now
