You are going up the same path that I did. My first phase consisted of installing an SAS 25 mm antisway bar w/ PU bushings, switching from stock 15x6 wheels w/ 205R60-15 to 16x6.5 super aero wheels w/ 205R50-16 Pirelli P zero neroes, and new PU bushings for the front control arm (rear only).
So far, I am very pleased: sway and understreer have been significantly reduced and the car goes where you point it w/o having to wrestle it around curves. Cornering speed has improved.
My second phase will consist of new Koni adjustables, F and R. I am still on the fence re installing the SAS front antisway and PU bushes and whether to install B & G lowering springs, F and R. I received some excellent advise from a gent at K.C. Saab, I may call him back.
Finally, the suspension is beginning to feel like it can keep up w/ the engine! Would strongly that you research the 9000 and performance BB for all the input that you can stand. All of the input from the good folks on the BBs gave me a good feeling going in, and my results so far are quite satisfactory. Best of luck, stay tuned to the BBs!
