I'll probably end up just getting dampers and springs. Any suggestions?

What are Bilstein B4 dampers like? With aftermarket springs?

I've got B8's on mine (B6 if you're not on lowered springs) Bilsteins are widely acknowledged to be very good indeed.

and they are ... frickin awesome! my car properly handles now, epic difference - and the ride is better.

Also, how does it compare to stock?

98 T4 with strut brace, Bilsteins shocks n springs unsure of the exact spec but does give a very nice level ride and not harsh at all

Sounds really good!

Shame they only do Bilstein B4's for S40's from 96-04!
