Default suspension

Hey All,
I'm looking to upgrade my suspension on my 1994 FXSTC. My main goal is performance & handling although I would like to lower my bike 1" front, back. Upon some searching/research I've come across
http://www.jpcycles.com/product/221-369 Race Tech Gold valve Cartridge kit.
Does anyone have experience with this kit? Is there another kit/manufactor I should be looking at?

Now I would love to buy a shotgun setup for the rear, but I just can't afford a nice system like that. With that being said I've heard good things about the 422 but they dont have rebound adjustment. Is there another shock out there that has rebound adjustment?
