that's what the Aero or Sports susspension is, and as NYSaab says above, the cost will probably be less if you buy the Saab kit. Also, if you buy after-market dampers (shocks) such as Konis you will probably have to adapt your present struts by cutting them, rather than buying a bolt-on assembly like the Sachs. Finally, you will spend many moons on this board looking for the perfect combination: lots of people will tell you what it is, and they will all have different views!
For what it's worth, my car came with the Sports suspension: I later fitted lowering springs and Konis and the results are both good and bad. Better looks, control and handling, worse ride and tyre wear.
Finally finally, wheels and tyres are an important part of the suspension package and that's a whole new can of worms. Think you may be with us for some time on this one.
