Rear Sway Bar Only?

Has anyone replace their rear sway bar only? And has anyone installed Neuspeed sway bar for the rear (stock 27.2mm Neuspeed has one that's 25mm). Autoparts.com does sell a sway bar for the rear only. In previous forum discussions there was an analysis done finding that by replacing the front bar there is only an 13% increase and the rear with an 80% increase. I'm considering just replacing the rear only. Any input is welcome. Thanks.

GRF,
I am currently running the stock front bar with the Comptech rear bar. If you are thinking of getting the comptech sways, front/rear combo, start by installing only the rear bar and see what you think. Note: I am now running coilovers with much heavier spring rates front and rear (almost double what my comptech springs were)I ran both comptech bars when I had the comptech springs in. I wish I would have experimented with the front bar before going to the coilovers.

Hi Kevin M
Thanks for your input. I currently have the Comptech springs. Do you know if Comptech will sell just the rear sway bar?

I don't know,but it can't hurt to ask. Also when I was going through this, they told me their rear bar is 22mm which is 7/8"(Comptech) For myself, I am starting to think about the Nuespeed 25mm bar, sounds interesting.
