Default suspension question

I have Eibach prokit lowering springs on my mustang. Is it fine to run it with the original shocks/struts that are on it? Or should I upgrade to the bilstein hd ones i was looking at.

Upgrade, you can also look at Tokico, KYB, and Koni. I run the Bilsteins on mine and I love them.

would it ride better? as in smoother? i know the cornering and stability would be better but i was wondering about the ride quality? and how much do you think an installation should cost? unless it can be done at home?

I'm in the same boat as you shaunmac... I've already bought some Eibach ProKit springs and am looking at the Tokico D-Specs and HPs. I like the fact that the HPs are cheaper, but from the minimal reviews I've read, apparently the HPs are total crap? If I don't need the D-Spec's adjustable feature, should I go with the HPs or are they inferior quality? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
