It would appear that the measuring techniques for stiffness between manufacturers is different. We have some additional tech planned to identify each bar and compare them with our test equipment, so there is apples to apples discussion.

BTW.. if you're shopping for pure stiffness, then you need to reevaluate your knowledge of sway bars and how their used. Working on some additional 'white-paper' tech from Steve Millen which may help guys get up to speed on how to balance a suspension setup, and what you should consider (including personal testing for your own driving style, not to mention what it's being used for.. even different tracks could take widely different suspension goals).

The "stiffest" bar should be far from what your goals are.. we could make a 500% stiffer bar, and it would completely destroy the balance of the car..
