Well, for starters it could be that what you have already is fully capable to out-do those stock systems you heard...it just isn't being optimally utilized at this point. For starters, try re-tuning everything as best you can. This can literally take several hours. I suggest doing it in 30 minute spurts as your hearing will start to fade after a while and it gets to be pointless.
Next, what are you powering them with? A properly sized 4 channel amp is a must for anything close to good midbass. Did you properly sound deaden the doors? you may want to consider that to help enhance the speakers if you haven't already.
I personally have not run Type X Alpines, but they should do great. I highly doubt you need to upgrade them...unless you really want a TON of midbass. If that ends up being the case, I suggest the upgrade kit and find a way to keep it all in the front....kickpanels, custom mounts, whatever. Just don't put them in the rear.
Hope that helps.
