Default Anti-Sway Bar options

I have an '03 2.7t. Supposedly it comes standard with was formerly known as PSK kit. Still not satisfied and am considering H-sport anti-sway bar (won't help squat/dive but should help transition and lean).

Any other companies out there making swaybars for my car? Any recommendations/expriences? Thanks

Default I rode in a car with h-sport, and it was great! That bar is HUGE, but the car fealt really stable.

I am hooked.

I had a 2000 with the psk bar, and I am very skeptical that the 2003 has the same bars. I am going to get mine measured with a micrometer.

The hsports are $400, pretty pricey. I was thinking about maybe doing the S6 bars, as soon as I can figure out how big they are

Default Re: my thoughts and more info

Everyone loves what the psk did for their pre '03s. I think our '03s feel pretty soft for having standard "performance kit."

Hsports are big but hollow, but most of the stress is outside diameter anyway.

I never thought of s6 bars. Cheaper?

Default dunno. I think there is some difference on the bars on the 2003 vs. the psk 2000

big difference.

I am going to try and see if an s6 guy will measure them

Does that mean 2000psk 2.7T would no benefit much from the h-sport bars?

Default Do you know the hollow section diameters? It would be interesting to do the calc and

see how (or if) they've moved the overall balanace as well as just stiffening both ends. I don't really see much reason for more stiffening than the S6 combo provides (at least on the street) but if it moves the balance a tad more rearward, it might get my interest. It would take both inner and outer diameter measurements to determine that though.
