Sorry I'm late in seeing this. The front sway bar was a big improvement. Its noticeable, I think it's a must do. I don't know about the rear improvements yet. It was good to get in there during the instal and re- enforce the welding and inspect the bracket that seems to rip naturally on the Crossfires.

You think it's a must do even without the rear? Did it increase understeer?

Just replaced front sway bar with AMG sway bar from NeedsWings. Big improvement for autocross feel and times. 8% thicker bar, solid hot rolled chrome moly and great bushings. Easy install. Had alignment shop add a bit more camber and toe for next race. Will see how that fairs.

Did it affect the stock balance or seem to increase understeer? I'm looking for improvement in stiffness and stability without compromising cornering. The H&R bar seems like it would be overkill and provoke more under steer. Are you able to measure the AMG bar? The thickness at the ends and in the middle?

Thanks
