I would suggest front upper, the rear upper, then rear lower, in that order as to effects.

If you have a SRI or CAI probably the DC or Neuspeed so they fit around the intake tube.

I prefer the AC as they were first out with both front and rear upper bars. I haven't tried a lower bar.

if you don't have sri or cai get a cheap 15 dollar ebay generic strut bar. its 80% less and does the same job.

um... don't listen to anyone that says get the cheap $15 version. you're just shooting yourself in the foot.

as soon as you get it you'll end up wanting a CAI/SRI... if you bought the non-neuspeed/DC sports strut bar then it won't fit so you've wasted your money.

Go with the strut bar that won't limit your options in the future. Maybe you can get away w/ a walmart brand strut bar in the trunk or a tie under the car but under the hood you don't want to waste your time w/ that cheap junk because then you can't upgrade in the future.

so to make it simple for you... go w/ DC sports or Neuspeed for your upper front strut bar.

Just another opinion. I have a Vibrant front strut and haven't regretted it. It's up to you. If you do plan to get an intake your options are more limited if you don't get a DC Sport or Neuspeed bar.
