The point is that both at full stiff are very close to about as stiff as you can go on OEM setup. Any stiffer(Whiteline or Hotchkiss or Doran's professional bar) is probably too much for oem dampers and springs. It's all about balance and is all relative.

It's like asking if an Olympic boxer is too tough to fight your little brother(OEM) or if an Olympic boxer is tough enough to fight Pacquiao(racing suspension).
That makes sense. what about with swift spec R springs which I'll be going to down the road. Would the stillen bar be enough or would I need to upgrade to whitrline or Hotchkis at that point?
