Strut/Shock options

It's time to change the shocks and struts on my IROC. But there aren't a lot of choices if a guy wants high pressure gas.
Bilsteins are one of the better makes, but they want over $400 for a pair of struts. KYB probably has some of the better deals, but the only high pressure gas version they have are the AGX line. Not too bad, $115 apiece from Summit. I also found Tokicko online that has them for $111. Nothing listed for Koni or La Carrera.

Any experience here? I like a firm ride, and the stock ride of my 86 IROC is too mushy. What've you guys tried, and how do you like it?

I got my AGX's from him on ebay, maybe email him or wait for him to post another camaro set. I paid under 250 shipped for the set i believe.
