Default 06 Si suspension options?

What are the current options for aftermarket suspension for the Si?

i had Eibach Pro kits with KYB AGX's on my 99si....not a bad setup...

i had Tein coils on my 03 Lancer Evo --sucked, never want them again.

... for my Si i'd like something that will give me 1 - 1.5" drop and still a decent ride that will last.

Thinking about comptech springs... what is out right now in terms of shocks? I'd love some Koni's but cant seem to find any info if they are available or not yet?

appreciate any info you guys have...

i'm running the hfp suspension. i love it. it is about a 1" drop. it doesn't affect camber enough to have a camber kit almost gets rid of the wheel gap. it rides smoother on flat roads, but is bumpier when you hit a bump. handling is improved about 75% i would say. i can take a 90 degree turn at about 40 and not hear the tires, just grip and go. i have the factory summer tires. i think it is worth the money and will not void any part of warranty.
the kit is front struts and springs fully assembled, ready to go. rear is springs and shocks. comes with all new bolts, and nuts (not really needed, its a new car.)
