Newbie looking for advice

I have a shiny new 300 touring. I want to stiffen the suspension. I know little about suspensions in general. A friend has a lot of older cars suggested Bilstein gas shocks would be all I'd need. I checked with the dealer and they sell loweirng springs and a coilover suspension kit. On tis forum I've seen suggestions to replace the suspension with an SRT8 suspension. Can anyone point me to a forunm where I can read up on suspensions in general? And can anyone point to some place where I can read up on the differences in the above options? Lastly, is there any place where I can locate the spring rate and damping coefficients for the various options? I'd like to try to model the different options and see how they compare.

Thanks

Rick
