Default Adjustable shocks/struts

Alright, so I'm going w/strange adjustable shocks/struts and wanted to know if I need to get diff. springs or if my stock springs will be fine. Should I consider drag-launch springs to go along w/ my rear adjustable shocks or what? Thanks for any help.

Springs lower the car
Shocks stiffen the ride
depending on what you want

no I don't want to lower the vehicle...I just want a sick launch but be able to adjust the suspension for the street. I'm fine w/the height of the vehicle as it sits now.
