Here in about a month, I'm gonna be buying a suspension bushing kit and i wanted some opinions.
Energy Suspension or Prothane?

I've got the prothane master kit, and i love it, everything is firm and when i take corners or change lanes quickly the car stays tight and no mushy steering feeling. also helped keep the car level in hard corners.

My SRT-4 has the Prothane Master Kit as well, and it's razor sharp in reflexes and handling, almost twitchy.
I had Grambo's old ACR with the full Energy Suspension setup in it too, and that car was as stiff as Bob Dole on Viagra.

I have the ES kit and I really don't agree with most of what people say about it. If the kit is installed correctly and the bolts torqued the way they should be the kit performs amazingly. I have no regrets about buying it.

Actuallu under stress of a Turbo the ES kits are preferred by the SRT boys, apparently better articulation in the lower control arms up front (rear bushing). But non-turbo it is just easier to install.
In the end the prothane kit has a few more bushings too but not a huge deal.
