I just installed some Progress front and rear sway bars on an SRT-4 today. He's on Tokico Illuminas (I believe thats it), with Tein S-Techs. People here LOVE the S-techs. But as for swaybars, Hotchkis rules over all from what I've heard.

I'm going with Mopar S1 springs, I'm not too big into my car bouncing around and I don't want to sacrifice the ride that I have now. But for sways, if you don't want to go Mopar, go Hotckis.

I went with the Mopar Stage 3 coilovers and Hotchkis sway bar set. I'm really happy with the set up.
A lot of people are using the PT cruiser front sway bar and ACR rear sway bar and love it. It's a really affordable set up.
Performance Dodge has pretty good prices on them.

I would highly suggest sway bars. I realize my car is slightly different than SRT4s....but I started with no sway bar in the rear, I put a 24mm up front and a 22mm in the rear and my car is glued to the ground in corners even on my skinny, ****ty *** stock tires that are worn out. I can't wait until I put the summer wheels on, its going to be a cornering machine.

Nice SXT...Add a PWerks tri-point strut tower bar to that also.

And btw...I have the eibach anti roll kit on my car...its the same one that is out for the SRT4, they are interchangeable, go figure. If anyone wants to know anything about it I can give anyone plenty of feedback on it. I can honestly say that I love the way the car handles now. Puts a nice big grin on your face everytime you go tearing through the curveys.

I got my coilovers from Performance Dodge for $1,340ish and the Hotchkis sway bars from Titan Motorsports for $260 shipped.
The sway bar kit wasn't advertised on their website, just call them and ask if they still have them.
