Any particular reason you want coilovers?

For my '99 I considered coilovers... settled on H&R/Bilstein B8s and couldn't have been happier. Ride and handling were phenomenal. Cannot recommend that setup highly enough

Bilsteins are top 3, also looking at H&R and Koni.

I’m Looking for a sportier ride, also pushing 450hp so looking for stability.

So, a highly viable option for a track/performance ride and oddly one that's remarkably nice on a commute, too, seems to be the Bilstein PSS9 with Porsche OEM GT3 sway bars + bushings front and back, along with the Agency Power Links front and back. Many in PCA have this setup as do I on my 2002 996.2 Carrera Cabrio. Don't forget to upgrade your rubber.

Stepping up my game with a set of JRZ. See how it works out.
