The D-Specs are nicer overall over tha AGX. I would not say they are built better but they are more adjustable. If you are on a tight budget the AGX are very good bang for your buck. Koni inserts are excellent too but initially more work to install. Not knowing what springs you have is tough to know what would match up best. Don't forget to include an alignment in your budget. Make sure you get a good alignment. If you don't know about alignments then look them up. A good one will make a BIG difference.

Depending on what modifications your car has, your looking for more negative camber in the front than rear. With even numbers from left to right. An example of this would be:
Front. -1.5 left AND right(not -1.2 left with-1.6 right)
Rear. -1.0 left AND right
You would also like 0.00 toe front and back.
This is just an example. Look up alignment specs for what modifications you have and what kind of driving you do. If your car is mostly stock you will be limited as to what kind of numbers you can expect. Again take it someplace that will actually do what you want and not just set the toe and call it a day.
