Koni or Bilstein?

Lots of people have an opinion. If you have run one brand or the other I'd like your comments. The usage will be 95% street with an emphasis on cornering and 5% drag racing. I'm running the stock WS-6 springs, Spohn torque arm, poly/spherical LCAs, and relocation brackets, stock 36mm/24mm sway bars in fresh urethane, GW subs, TS-14 steering brace, and Del-A-Lum front control arm bushings.

I'm leaning towards the Koni's for the easy adjustability up front. I like the HALs in the rear but am having a hard time talking myself into shelling out $150 per shock. Any feedback from current users appreciated.

Bilsteins came stock on IROCs, so they are a good shock. If you have the money, get Konis. Check out the GP section at www.ws6.com for good prices.
