So I’ve just put a stage 2 clutch and LW flywheel in my car, and I’m starting to dabble into suspension now. I’ve always been more into the corner hugging, tight steering and nimbleness(rally) and was wondering what the best rally geared suspension would be to get

Forum member @Dialcaliper has done extensive work on a setup of that type. Here is a link to his very thorough thread-

Yes, if you desire something which will not be way too 'floaty' on the paved roads, and you need much more suspension travel and ride height than could ever be offered by the standard/'usual suspect' coil over setups marketed for our cars, than Dialcaliper's thread cited above by Capri to ST is the only solution.

Of course, if you wanted to go psychotic overkill, did not mind paying close to more than the car is worth for suspension, and did not mind rebuilding your dampers every 5K miles (depending on how piss poor your roads are), you could opt for the $5K (used, rebuilt) to now $11K (new) Reiger Fiesta Rally 4/R2 M-Sport 3 way adjustable, remote reservoir, fully motorsport sized piston shaft, etc. coil over kit.
