The front sway bar from the factory is a pretty stout unit. I have heard that the hollow sway bars save weight, but compromises strength somewhat with the front factory unit, but I have no personal experience with this as I am still running the front factory unit. Verify the dia before buying a front sway bar as most of the front aftermarket units are smaller in dia than the stocker and therefore less stout. A lot of manufacturers & resellers of the front sway bar for these cars make thinner units than the factory and therefore do not advertise the dia or thickness on the ad or description. Just my personal experience here. Most turbobrick owners that have set up their car for all-around handling (scary thought there) have found out that best handling characteristics have come from increasing the dia of the rear sway bar and leaving the front alone. HTH & good luck.
