Default Suspension setup for an ek with a H22

I am getting a H22a after i get back from boot camp and was wondering what was the best suspension setup for the extra weight in the front. im looking for it to be a Auto X and strip car so handling is important. Ive heard good things about Tein SS's but i dont know if they will compliment the H22 very well. Also when i fixed my front end i lost about 70 lbs in the front due to a CF hood and extremely lighter parts. will that help when the H22 pushes down the extra weight? Any comments welcome.

if ur lookin for an autocross engine i wouldn't go w/ an h22 cuz u'll probably be breaking axles left and right doing hard turns..for the ek..i'd just go w/ a b18c5 or something

if you want axles that should hold up go to http://www.raxles.com, they are $170 per side, with no core charge.
