Well, by TEIN do you mean just springs or are you considering coil overs?

Most likely tein springs as he's comparing them to eibach. I personally went with tein and they're GREEEAAAT!

just a friendly advise... since your mind is already set on spring only, save some money for shocks/springs at least in the future.
it's not a good idea to just replace the spring and run it with the stock shocks. reason is the stock shocks are not up to the task of a progressive springs which means you'll blow your whole suspension off in no time at all.

hope this helps and goodluck.

Whether your shocks blow depend on the quality of the strut itself. Not sure how Si struts are, but Pro-kit is a pretty moderate increase in spring rate.
