What Bilstein shock should I use?

Heres the shimmy,

I'm wonder what those of you have done shock wise with comperable components. I'm going for a streetable/agreesive suspesion. Bistein heavy duty or sport?

My 914 completed will have...
-22mm hollow torsion bars
-Tarett front sway bar
-Rebel Racing front raised bilstein struts
-Rebel Racing rear adjusted coil over kit, springs not yet aquired
-rear sway bar, not yet decided
-2.8 MFI 911 engine, est 200hp
-901/914 trans, custom gearing, Trans-Gaurd LSD
-Boxster calipers
-17" Fikses, 8" front and 9" rears (GT fenders installed on car)

Educated opinions?

Cheers
