For what purpose?
Track, street, rally, other? There are literally dozens of options to consider, it'd help tremendously if you told us what you were looking for and what you liked/disliked about what you currently have.

neg, coilovers are better for adjustability from street to canyon runs. I have koni, and love them but bilsteins H&R's and B&G are also good

I agree with what Mike said. Also, you may want to specify a price range. "The best" could imply some ohlin coilovers or custom-made air ride. :D

K/W's are one of the best. They have 3 different versions from your basic coil over to resivour with unlimited adjustments. I plan on getting the K/W V3's eventually. Not cheap though but well worth it.

Do you have a price range? Did you have a particular height range in mind as well? Different coilover kits offer different amounts of height adjustability.

I dont care about the price...I just want something that isn't too stiff'...and fit's well with H-Sport sway bars..

If you're particular about stiffness, look for dampening adjustable coils like
Koni (rebound only) ~$900
KW V2 (rebound only) ~$1500
KW V3 (rebound and compression) ~$2000
Bilstein PSS9 (rebound only) ~$1400
Stay away from
H&R
