Will I notice a significant improvement in handling if I upgrade my Tokico HP shocks/springs to a Ksports setup?

I want to start doing occasional autox events, but not be competitive, just more of a fun thing. I usually don't drive my car on a daily basis, but it is my only vehicle and I do take multi hour trips on regular occasion.

I've heard a lot of good & bad things lately about them, and want to decide before I go and possibly buy them tomorrow. Basically I want to know if they're going to be that much better ($400 better specifically, haha)? Or would an upgrade to adjustable Tokico shocks be a better option? Or save for something better like Konis down the road?

Oh yea, my car already has aftermarket swaybars, strut tower braces, and stuff like that, would there be something better to upgrade before coilovers?
