if you dont really want to lower it but get a stiffer ride go with some springs and shocks, check out the Suspention thread for lots of useful information on different set-ups

Thanks everyone, you all are awesome. I'll have to check out the suspention thread. I've been looking into intakes and you say that AEM is a good brand? I hadn't really thought about headers, would that be a good investment? When it comes to exhaust systems I'm not partial to the "ricer" sound so if I could get an aftermarket exhaust that sounds stock but works better I'm all for it.

the pros of dropping ur car is ur closer to the ground and u feel what bumps ur car is hitting and learn to avoid them in ur daily drive... now.. if u havent already.. tune up ur car oil spark plugs.. wires.. that will give you better gas mileage from the start.. and add a thing of drygas as it directs.. that helps to keep the fuel system clean

If you get the struts that have adjustable dampening, then you could make the suspension softer. And if you have adjustable coilovers, you could raise the car up.
