price for a quality strut bar with out hinges vs a cheap strut bar with hinges does not justify spending the extra money, strut bars just don't do enough

My front strut bar made a decent difference. IMO do it right or don't do it at all. Get a solid, non-hinged design.

i had the hinged one and then a neuspeed. the neuspeed made a lot of difference when installed on the car. i will probably start making some neuspeed style bars in the near future
