Careful, this is an 02 bugeye, not an STI I beleive, so the dampers may not be up to the heavier springs. Lower is only better until you run out of suspension travel. Ask Scott what running on bump stops or tire on fender is like.

Almost everyone I know that wants handling and goes for springs eventually ends up replacing them with coilovers. I'd suggest saving up for a set of Teins or similar, or you can go autrageous like I did and get DMS 50s with road race springs.
