Welcome aboard son..

from the sounds of it you put some ebay specials on your whip and now you are bouncing around more then christina aguilera..thats ok you have to learn somewhere. what kind of coil sleeves did you put on the car? are you still running stock struts?

It is probably because the springs are poorly made like Ebay coilover like bagged said. I would say try some new struts cause yours may be worn out.
