I would rather buy suspension first, that will show much dramatic difference. The lower you are, the more control you have on the ground as less body roll there is. Are you lowered?

i talked to one of my buddies and he is a ford guy and he said i wouldnt feel much of a difference, but the concept of a rear sway bar is the same no matter what vehicle. but i keep hearing on here that it is one of the most suggested upgrades....

It varies with different cars, but generally speaking an RSB upgrade makes a sizable difference. And the effect is magnified when an RSB is complemented by a suspension upgrade.

Even on stock suspension, it's a big difference. And it's certainly amplified with a suspension upgrade.

Nice upgrade.

It does make a huge difference, so enjoy and once the full suspension upgrade is done, enjoy the cornering!

Unless you're a Ford guy driving a Mustang with a SOLID REAR AXLE, lol. That's why the guy doesn't feel much of a difference and also why most cars like that aren't very good in the twisties. The RSB is the only thing that connects the rear wheels to each other in a FWD car with IRS, so when you dig into a turn there is going to be a lot more body roll. Luckily for us, this is easily tunable with coilovers and thicker bars.

Mustang guys don't give a **** though. They love their SRA's.

100% agree. I'm sure a lot of em are crying the the SRA is no more.
