What do you mean by "tail happy"? Does this mean the tail end is coming around too quickly for you when coming out of corners and applying the throttle? If this is the case, I am not sure how much of a difference coilovers would make. I am no expert, and am interested to hear your reasoning.
The adjustability of the coilovers will give you the ability to dial out rear axle bump and rebound and make changes to slow and fast compression over the front axle, in-turn increasing rear wheel traction and changing the snappy tail happy characteristic of the passive set up.
