Default I would focus on something else...

like the suspension. You gotta drop that beyotch! I know you live in an area where it snows...but you can still drop it a bit. Just a suggestion.

What is a good kit for a good price. I dont need any racing suspension or anything. Just something a little more stiff than stock (non sport)-what i have.

Default ok..what I would do..

is Koni adjustable shocks with H&amp;R sport or Vogtland springs. I have Bilstein shocks and I can tell you they are stiffer than what you are looking for. You should save up for that mod..it will be well worth it.

Default $600-$700 in parts..labor?

I have no idea what they charge in your area for labor to install. I do that myself..so I would not be the guy to ask. It shouldn't be too much and sometimes you can get a deal if you buy parts at the place that is going to install them.
