Has anyone installed the Neuspeed front sway bar?

If so, what are your impressions? I'm thinking of getting it myself, but I noticed that it's only .5mm thicker than the stock one. Some say that because the Neuspeed comes with poly bushings, it should be an improvement over stock. I already have the Comptech rear sway. Informed responses are welcome.

One problem with poly urethane bushings they tend to squeak specially when the temps are cold - that is why most cars do not come with polyU bushings from the factory.

I've heard that, too. Lubing the bushings supposedly diminishes the noise. I'd tolerate some squeaking for less body roll/improved cornering.

As far as I can tell, Neuspeed is the only company offering a front sway for the TSX. And having searched the forums, I can't find one person who's installed it. Anyone?

The front bar is not as easy to install as the rear bar. It requires removing the lower sub-frame to get to the D-bushings. Since there's isn't a big difference in bar dia. I would just install poly bushing to the stock bar instead. Also, keep in mind a larger bar can increase understeer.

the front sway bar is big enough for the TSX. don't need to change.

the rear stock ones are definately worth changing.
