Default Coilovers

400whp with stock suspension sucks. Im looking to get some coilovers in the near future, you guys have any recommendations? I heard BC Racing coilovers were really good. My limit would be ~$1000. Any ideas?

BC is a good choice if you want to stay in the $1000 range.

You could also find a low mileage set of KW V2/RCE coilovers in the $1200-$1300 range

if you have a sedan you want the rear extenders because they allow you to reposition the dampening knob... Unless you have a wagon its kind of a pain in the ass to get to them
