Default Suspension Suggestions for 2001 2.8 Quattro

Allright, let me start off by saying I am new here, but have been reading these forums since I purchased my 01' A4 about 2 months ago.
I like the intelligent feedback as well as the great tips and tricks you guys offer, they have been EXTREMELY helpful to me so far, as I have put alot of work into this car allreadysince I got it (Dissected Climate control module to clean everything due to cupholder malfunction I assume) the list goes on, but anyways on to my Question

I dont plan on lowering the vehicle, But I would like to add Sway bars + Bushings + Strut brace to improve my handeling. Pretty much the only thing suspension wise I have done so far is changed the Diff fluids out for Royal Purple gear lube, but that really doesnt count

Im looking for good quality, but at relatively affordable cost I would preffer the sways/bushings all come in one kit but if they dont thats allright, all im looking for is your guys input on what sways/bushings/strutbar would be best.

Thanks in advance, viLeGT
ps: Ill post pics once the tint is done

One budget upgrade for the A4 is to buy a set of OEM S4 swaybars - they'll give you a nice boost in handling and cornering grip, and usually will cost less than aftermarket bars if you buy them from an S4 owner (buying from Audi will probably cost you a kidney). For bushings, check into Energy Suspension - they make urethane bushings for almost anything, so you may find them for your car. I've used them in the past on my 300ZX and they were great. Strut brace probably won't do much, as our cars have the double firewall underhood - you can probably pass on that.
