Default koni sport shocks

I have an 03 pt turbo w/ progress front sway bar, strut bar and eibach lowering springs. I am thinking of replacing my shocks w/ koni sport shocks for better handling in the turns and corners. Will they do the job? or is there another shock better suioted for this application.

Where did you end up setting your shocks at? How many clicks from soft, etc?

there are no clicks but about 1/2 turn to firm up front and fully soft in the rear. I tried a firmer setting but it was a little bouncy on the highway AKA freeway hop

I don't have the Koni's but would suggest you consider the Mopar/KW system. I think they handle great and really like that they are height adjustable. Also, they are shortened to add travel unlike the Koni's/KYB's/Tokico's/etc. that have less travel.
