sway bar or strut bar because their 2 different bars? strut bar goes under the hood, sway bar goes under the car. Im more than sure you can use both with the supercharger, i would think your talking about the strut bar. It shouldnt interfere with it at all.

Yes they go under the car.
The car already has sway bars, your just replacing them with thicker/stiffer ones for the FRONT and BACK

you can also get strut bars for the front and back.

i knew they already have them. i just wasnt sure where they put the front sway bar. cause from the picture it looks really odd as to where it would fit.


thanks for your help man!
