Is this a replacement or an addition to stock? Does it offer any more bending resistance than stock or is it just cosmetic?

its mainly cosmetic...you'll BARELY feel a different w/ a FSB on our car. The sways will do the trick, however.

btw, that's a pretty good deal...and, it's a replacement, not an add-on

goodnight, lol

if its mainly cosmetic and its a replacement not an add-on...wont we lose out on the benefits overall then? Cause I believe that the one we have now isn't just cosmetic.

i would prefer the cusco bar since it can only help since it complements the stock bar

I personally went with the CT Titanium. Haven't installed it yet (waiting until spring), but the thing is a monster, much thicker then the Neuspeed...and it replaces the stock bar... so it should yield good results.

I knew the CT would be a monster but I figured that the stock + cusco/neuspeed = CT and is a lot cheaper.

if I was buying an STB I would definately go with the comptech titanium but its not worth the 300$ to me at the moment; the gains aren't that great. if I ended up doing it, it would be the last thing and would probably be done for looks and to add one more comptech mod to the list .. .. ..

i noticed when i installed the Eibach FSTB it helped plenty with chassis roll. My driveway is very steep and before i installed the STB the sunroof always creeked because of the chassis roll, but after the install the squeeking was virtually gone. After installing sways, not even a squeek. Performance wise, in combination, much better mod for me than my illuminas and ground control...

Good to know. I hear a little squeek once in awhile when going up the driveway too. UPS suppose to drop it off today. Cant wait to do the install.

Any hints on install, such as how tight I should screw the bolts..etc?
