Sway-bar: Agency Power set or Mazdaspeed set?

Hi guys and gals!

I'm currently torn between those 2 options:

- Agency Power Competition Sway Bar Package:
Front: 32mm, solid, 3 way adjustable
Rear: 19mm solid???, 2 way adjustable
* Come with new spherical endlinks
~725$

- Mazdaspeed:
Front: 27.2mm, hollow, non-adj.
Rear: 17.3mm, hollow, non-adj.
* OEM endlinks
Price unknown but I got "Jobber" prices at my friendly dealer

Of course, AP seems the better choice, but i'm sure I can have the Mazdaspeed set for a dime or two lol...

What is your opinion and experiences with both setup?

Thanks!

PS: My 8 will be running the following:

TEIN Mono Flex (10-kg/7kg)
Mazdaspeed or Beatrush strut-bars
Enkei RPF1 18X9.5 +45 with Falken RT-615 255/40-18

The AP bars are stiffer than the MS bars. And I think they are cheaper too. Progress has a set of bars that are said to be the same as the AP's at a lower cost yet. The end links, when purchased separatly, for the AP's are expensive.
I would go with the Progress bars. I got the AP's before the Progress came out.

yea team said the agency power and progress are the same. i would go for those. it isn't necessary to use aftermarket endlinks depending on what your gonna be doing.
