Default sway bar questions

I was thinking about getting the sway bar, but have questions. I don't plan on getting springs now or anytime soon. I don't race, but I do like curves. Will I see a big enough difference with the sway bar to be worth th money?

Yah I'm planing on getting one too... some of the others that's had it install say that there is a noticeable different... It supposed to help with body roll to help correct the understeer around curves.

I have the sway bar; put it in myself. I'm not a racer or even a dedicated driving enthusiast, but I do think driving is fun, and I too "like curves". I did notice a difference with the sway bar - just felt like the rear end was tightened up a little bit. FWIW, my wife didn't notice much (if any) difference. I don't have springs or any other suspension mods, but I do have 17" alloys (tC factory rims) and performance tires (Nexen N3000). So in conclusion, I'd say since you like curves, you'll probably notice and enjoy the sway bar. At ~$150, it's a relatively inexpensive mod as far as those things go! And as has been mentioned here several times, it's very quick and easy to install.

HTH,
Andy
