I'd go bigger than the eibach's. I've got '05 convertible that felt like I would be sitting in the passange seat on hard lefts. I put in Suspension Techniques bars 1 1/8"F & 7/8" rear and couldn't hardly believe the difference. Put the sport in "sport suspension"
Also the strut brace is an excellent addition. Do them at the same time for max effect.

I got them from StreetBeatCustoms.com for $239 plus shipping. I also had to buy $78 worth of rear sway install parts from the dealer because my 05 did not have a rear sway on it. I don't think any of the PT's after 02 had them. I have a 26mm front bar off my cruiser for sale for $50 if anyone wants it, then you would only have to purchase a rear bar and the install parts from the dealership. Although I still recommend going as large as possible. All the sway bars for all model PT's work on any other PT. The bars I got said '00-'02 but fit just perfect. And the front bars for neons also work. Not sure about rear from neons.
Installing is really not very hard. You need a good Torque wrench to do it right. Also getting the car as far off the ground as you can really helps working under it. Tall ramps or a lift is better although I did mine with short jack stands. The front involves taking off 6 bolts 2 of which have nuts that you need a large set of locking pliers to do right(no wrench works because of a plastic insert- you'll know what I mean when you do the job) Then you put in the new bushings and bolt it up just like the old one came off. The rear goes on even easier because there is nothing to take off(except older cruisers with them) It's just 6 bolts, 2 nuts and 2 bushings and you're done have fun

Dumb question - what size does PT come with F/R - I know rear went away after '02, right?

GT front bars are 24mm and no rears. I just did rear bar cause for a mm I dont think it is worth replacing. Suspension Techniques supplies a 27 mm (Eibach 25 mm) so if I dont like the handling with rear bars I can beef up front later at a little increase in price over buying the front and rear kit. Bought rear bar only at Mach 1 Car for $138. Install kit from Eibach from Shox.com for $80. Got delivery in a week and the install kit showed up three days before the bar. BTW bar was dropped shipped from manufacturer as they are on a short back order.
