Default Hydraulics, Airbags?????

I was posting in a different thread and realized what a PITA it is for me to get a jack under my car. I hate the look of the stock ride hieght so raising the ride hieght is not an option.

So here's my question..........
are there performance hydraulic or pneumatic..etc suspensions for a C4?

or do I need to talk to Hoppo's
