Default anyone recommend a good shock and suspension kit

one that will lower the car, make it handle better and possibly make it launch better without braking the bank. what about the eibach pro system kit?

Are KYB struts good? Should I stay away from the ebay kits?

Eibach springs handle very good, not sure about the track though

the eibach pro kit will NOT help you at the track.. that is NOT what they are designed for.

get a set of drag springs, or dont get anything at all. a set of "handling" springs, are going to do nothing for you except slow you down.
