Track performance seems improved (no real quantitative data since I changed shocks as well).
I bought mine from www.suspension.com. Excellent customer service and fast shipping.

i installed the master kit purchased from summit. firmed up the ride without making it harsh. my old rubber bushings were dry and cracked.
there customer support is outstanding! i installed one of the upper control arm bushings wrong and had to cut it off. i called customer support and they sent out a replacement free of charge.
if you get the black set, they are impregnated with graphite.

yes thats the places web site for the 1-800 number i gave, they even beat jeg's prices for each kit by itself. but energy suspension sells on ebay now and last time i looked the whole kit for all the bushings for C4 was right around $167 i think

I bought the entire kit from Summit and installed the rear in Feb no squeeks, harsh ride, or drama. During the winter I plan on installing the fronts and new ball-joints.
Overall I am pleased with Energy Suspensions quality.

I got my ES bushings from Suspension Restoration Parts also.
www.suspension.com/
Something that is very refreshing about this company is that they do not hit you with Shipping and $HANDLING$$ .
They charge only the shipping fees.
To many of these companies advertise good prices and then add on an arbritrary handling fee to make up the difference.
Suspension Restoration Parts has changed their web site a little since I ordered mine three months ago. I didn't see the 30mm sway bar bushings, but they do have them. They have other suspension parts such as ball joints, that I found out about when I ask.

I put them on all throughout the car and love the feel and the firm ride. www.suspension was great to deal with and their shipping is a good price and FAST!. Do yourself a favor though if you are planning on doing this and buy some synthetic marine grease and use it to apply to the bushings to stop the apparent squeaks of poly bushings. I put so much on that it was squeezing out of the bushings and to date over a year period I have NO squeaks at all. The grease they supply is good but you don't get very much. If you do the front then might as well do the rear. Good luck!
