What a huge difference in handling and ride! If I
only had known this two months ago I would have done
my rear bar and suspension together. The oem non-
sport bar is a joke!

Neuspeed 22mm??? You must have gotten an old one, they do not make them anymore . . .
Neuspeed had the 22 with their older subframe braces and they transferred too much force through the subframe. With the new braces they discontinued the 22mm and went with the 19mm. Due to the beefy new subframe supports, the 19mm transfers the same torsion as the 22mm setup without the risk to the subframe. In any event, get the latest subframe braces; they're over-engineered for years of service! Call Neuspeed.
Additionally, no engineer would use sway bars as a replacement for a good shock/spring combination. Sway bars are for fine tuning only. Because you spent big bucks on an excellent suspension, you feel little difference. Quite simply, the suspension is so stiff that does not give the sway bar much of a chance to work. On more comfort orientated sport suspension set-ups (like my Koni C/O's), the sway bar makes a big difference.
