Lol well since i had to purchase everything from the states and our conversion rate is just horrible right now i sort of got fucked. In american money itd prob be like 18k or w.e the rates at now. And no i installed every single piece on my car, except bore the motor the shop did that. Its just headaches now, everythings such a tight fit and theres already problems cant find a tuner around here...well hopefully it will be on the road for june 1st il keep you all updated and post the dyno results when i go

Well...to answer the OP's question:
There is only one thing to do, and that is to call Shaikh @ Fat Cat Motorsports. If you've put that much into your car, suspension should be top notch.
Unless you go with some hella expensive coilover setup, I imagine you'd be happy with some real spring rates, revalved Bilsteins to match them, and MCU bumpstops with possibly front top mounts as well.

I've got like $18k in my NA right now, and it still looks like ****, rides like ****, and isn't turbo... and keeps blowing fuses and other annoying stuff like that. So I can't comment on overspending, since I'm probably in worse shape than that.
