I have same year 850, turbo. Just replaced struts/shocks as a DIY job with Bilstien HD, and love the ride. Its very tight, and you will feel every slight undulation in the road, but when you hit a big bump, clear a set of railroad track, etc, you will love not having to slow down!!! THis is really a drivers preference question, and I prefer a bit harder ride, with more road feel...if not your choice go with TC.

In so far as the rattle is concerned, sound like the sway bar links....$25 a pair and 30 minutes work....thats what mine did....

Best of luck...
