Noob's Driving Impressions:
I just drove this car for an hour around town with the free swaybar mod. The car wants to go much straighter than before and there is more resistance to turning. I have a better feel for the road and wherever I point the steering wheel, the car immediately goes. Before this mod, the steering was a bit numb feeling and the front end of the car did not feel quite planted to the road even on sport mode which felt real fake. I haven't driven many cars, but the closest I can relate this car's front end to now is a C5 vette. Yesterday's hard work was worth it. To the above poster, I am not sure I understand your statement since the lever arm for the swaybar has shortened, thus my different feeling front end. Additionally, the link will not fit the rearmost upper mount if in the swaybar's stiffer setting. I don't believe even if it would fit that it would be a good way to mount it due to the addition of greater horizontal forces. Right now, the force the swaybar would exert is mostly vertical and parallel with the strut.
