Default christams suspension set up

well i am doing a a bit of suspension work on the tc thought I would share my ideas and see what you guys think. Comments welcome on anything you think would be pointless or a better product.
Setup is going to be
Hotchkis rear sway at center setting
custom made front, rear, and mid strut bars/support bars
s-tech lowering springs

I live on a mountain with some nasty curves and the SUV like body roll finally got the best of me so I'm hoping this will fix it.

Also wondering does anyone know the stiffness %'s on the progress sway bar? or is hotchkis better?

hotchkis is stiffer. thats why it comes with both front and rear, since they believe that if you only put on their rear, you'll most likely snap into oversteer.
