Help! Polybronze or Polygraphite

I am restoring my 73.5 T and will be changing out all the suspension bushings. My question to the Pelicanites is whether I should go with Weltmeister Polygraphite as in Pelican Parts or the Polybronze and Monoball set-up from Elephant Racing. The difference in cost is about $800. That is a substantial difference for what is to be a fun street driven car. I have driven a couple of 911Ss recently and the suspension compliance was pretty poor but these were both on old bushings. Therefore, I have no frame of reference as to whether the smooth acting Polybronze would be worth the extra expense. I would go for the extra expense if it really made a lot of difference in driving dynamics. Keep in mind this is a Targa so if the Polybronze bushings eliminate all suspension compliance then the car itself may start twisting more than Porsche intended.

Thanks for the input guys!
