911 SC owners! What did you decide on for your suspension refresh?

I want to "refresh" my all orginal 79 SC suspension. I've read quite a few posts from a search but would still like to hear what some decided on after their research. Also, post your feedback after driving impressions please.

My driving is spirited street, arrive and drives with the local PCA, autocross and maybe my first DE this year. Budget is limited, but what I am leaning towards is

Bilstein HD inserts ( I assume this is a must)
OEM rubber mounts bushings for torsion bars
OEM rubber bushings for front and rear upper strut mounts
OEM rubber a arm bushings
Turbo tie rod kit.

I'm hoping this will tighten things up but I'm not sure to what degree. Nothing seems out of wack but have not assessed the wear on the current bushings.

I hear the polybronze bearing mount arguement but I don't think my budget can support it.
How the car looks while cornering.
