Hillclimb suspension setup

I just have a few questions on springs and shocks, and needed some opinion. I'm planning on racing in the new england hillclimbs and some autocross. The hillclimbs are on pavement only and can be rough in places but not as rough as rally's. The class i want to run in I can not change the suspension vary much. I can lower the car a little maybe 1 to 1.5 in. Have to stay within the sping rate and I can have adjustable shocks but in the stock location. All braces are okay. Can not alter in anyway. So I plan on using The tien s-tech springs with the kyb agx shocks. Also going to use the hyper suspension bushing. Like everybody else I'm on a limited budget. So what's your opinion.

I did do some research before I picked this setup. So I guess I need your oppion on this setup. Sounds good so for.
We have to be more worried about the moose and the dear hear. Last year I was working on the mountian as a corner person on check point 4, there was a car coming up the hill and just past check 3 when all of a sudden there was a big moose right in the middle of the road, we had know way of telling the driver because he was in the middle of the check points. So I ran down to the moose and it ran away(moose sometimes will not run,but just look at you).The race went on and all weekend there was sighting of the moose, but stayed out of the way. Thanks for the info. Have some pics of my car at the car forum site.
