struts, shocks & springs

Greetings my fellow mod junkies

I'm in the market for new springs/shocks/struts, and I wanted to get some thoughts/opinions from you guys. Right now I'm looking at the Tokico D-Spec shocks & struts and the Vogtland lowering springs. I drive 35 miles each way to work every day on the highway... a bit around town... no track time as yet.

1) Is there any extraneous hardware I will likely need?
2) Can I expect a reasonable boost in handling?
3) Are there any caveats I should be aware of?
4) How much should I expect the install to cost?

So, what do you think? Should I put off my exhaust mods (headers & dual pipes) in favor of this suspension mod?

I just had Eibach's Pro-System (lowering springs, tuned struts and shocks installed for $950 total. Made a tremendous difference in handling. But, be prepared for a firmer ride when ever you stiffen up the suspension. I used the Prosystem, not Sportsystem because I vaule my kidney function. The kit improved my open track time significantly, allowing me to carry more speed out of the corners.
