Do a search on "lowering" and you will have reading material for days. Several choices of lowering springs out there. Eibach is probably the most commonly used. You may need/want to change your shocks if you lower it very much.

LOTS of us have lowered the PT. Mike gave you best advice - search and read up.
Quickly, stay under 2" and you'll probably find stock shocks okay. Rear springs are easy, fronts you shouldn't try without help from someone who's done it before.
