Contact Caliyaris (garm, microimage) He has a progress one for cheaper than the trd version. TRDsparks.com has the rear TRD sway bar, that is where I got mine from.

Will different shocks and struts also help the handling on the highway...Iam lowered with TRD springs and 205/40/17's with TRD rear swaybar and still gets kind of goofy on the freeway....

I'm on the stock 15s, stock suspension, with just the sway bar, and it handles just fine on the freeway. If I spent 2 grand on wheels and suspension, and my car drove "goofy" on the freeway, I'd get an alignment or a refund. You did align your car after getting new suspension right?
