Default sway bar (2.7T sport package) vs. H-Sport sway bar

Hi everyone,,
I just would like to know how these two sway bars are different.
I am planning to get the H-Sport sway bar, but if it is not much better than the one with the sport package.................................
Please give me some advice.

Default Night and day. H-sport got it right. The other is nice but different

had the Psk rear bar, was nice, then switched to the H-sports and changed the car nicely.
Either or is a nice mod, but if your going to do it, go with the H-sports and do it once.

Default Right, plus the H-sport kit has a front bar, too...

...and it also helps. I've had both, and I guess I think that the PSK bar (plus the other bits of the Audi sports suspension) are Audi's way of improving the suspension without alienating mass-market buyers who want a certain amount of mush in their cars. The H-sport bars, on the other hand, begin to approach true enthusiast levels of improvement. They are, however more expensive to buy and to install (but, then, there's two of 'em). HPH

Default Day and Night! Driven both suspensions and H-sport is tops. Stock sport suspension is

OK; but, H-sport brings the car to a whole new level. You will say 'WOW'!

Default Is an upgraded front bar neccesary ?

Sometimes a certain amount of oversteer is good ?

Default Don't kid yourself - nothing will ever make these boats oversteer.

IIRC, someone did pull the front H-Sport to see if it helped. But I'm with Ming - I first added the PSK on my 99, then got the '02 with the factory sport package, and then added the H-Sports. There are IMHO no drawbacks to them, so go all the way the first time!
