You should probably do a search for items like "x74", "ROW M030", "PSS9 (or 10)", or "suspension mods". Lots of great threads on these topics in the past.

For what it's worth, my car has a similar setup to what you're thinking - I've got GT3 sways, H&R springs and Bilstein Sports. I like it because my car sees double duty between track and road, but I think most people would find this arrangement too stiff. If you're thinking Bilsteins for road use only, I'd go with the HDs, which are not nearly as firm as the Sports.

For street use only, lots of people have found the ROW M030 to be a good option, with one benefit being that it's all Porsche parts. Others really like the PSS9 (now 10s). As I said, do a search and if possible ride in some cars with different suspensions.
