Regarding the Cusco sway bar, it's about 124% stiffer on the front...
But I am a bit  on the rear when their website says it's 238% stiffer than the stock...... 
The Stillen one is adjustable, and I believe also the Whiteline.
I will check the price with my local shop, if the price is right.... mmm.... Christmas shopping...  |
thanks for the info, mr.alcheng. i do agree that material does play a big role in the stiffness regardless of diameter of the bar.
looking at the vs stock, i think max 150% is about where i want my bar to be. i dont want my car stiff, i want to lessen the initial turn-in softness the car is programed with. but at the same time..
i can achieve this either with the swaybar or with stiffer dampers. this is where ive been trying to decide. i have a feeling i might be happier swapping out the dampers as it can also eliminate the normal-car-like feel while going over big dips. it's not a huge deal for me, but just trying to decide if i want to commit on the entire process (ordeal) or just leave it alone since the car drives pretty well.
