Peformance front end kit

I want to replace my stock front end with something better. Unfortunately all I could find is this MOOG kit.
http://www.spohn.net/shop/1982-1992-...build-Kit.html

Is it better than stock or the same? Is there something more performance oriented than this kit? Where can I find it? I want top performance kit.

Thanks for the answers

Cheers
Marcin

Well I also found that Performance Suspension Technology (PST) offers the SUPER polygraphite kit.
Is it better than the Moog?
It does not include centerlink however, but includes more than Moog kit that SPOHN sells.

Keep stock in good condition and it will be far enought for Your car, just keep them clean, greased with good aligment and it will do the job

I beat the crap out of my stock stuff all the time. Just replace anything worn out with high quality replacements, keep it in good operating order, and grease it regularly and you should be fine. Might be a good idea to get some HD tie rod adjusters.

FYI, that kit from Spohn, the one he linked to, comes with them already

I know. I just meant if he didn't go with the kit and bought only what was shot.

Ya, I guess that was a good idea to point that out, in case someones else misses it. But to tell you the truth, all they really do is make adjusting the tie rods easier, but they do look better.
