Default First impressions of my newly installed front sway bar

Yesterday the 22mm Neuspeed bar was put in. The ride is slightly rougher. I can feel the road a little more. But the handling is nice! It's flatter going around cornes and it feels more like how a car should feel. It's definitely worth it! btw - this was in addition to the 19mm rear bar, bilsteins and eibachs. It's a nice setup

I installed the 19mm rear bar and I've thought
about the larger front. I have the PSS9 Bilsteins set 1.5 inches down. The
car handles great the way it is but if some is
good more is usually better! I do have 15mm
spacers in front and 20mm's in the rear. I
balanced the car on the club scales to 2728lb left front/rt. rear and 2714 rt. front/left rear with me in the seat. Must be time for the front bar!

Did the reflash fix your boost issue?

Default Not sure yet...haven't had many chances to test it, but...

The few times that I have tested it, it has seemed better. I'm currently still running without the BM - when that goes back in I'll really see if the reflash helped.

Default That's the easy part...

The hard part is not ramming into people! I gotta get around 4k rpms in fourth and fifth. Not so easy to do in rush hour traffic. Damn clowns... :-P

How's your car treating you? Still enjoying the haldex controller?
