Im probably gonna sound like a total newb, but what exactly does a sway bar do? Like i know it helps with handling and all, but I just dont really understand how it works...

The rear two wheels move up and down independintly when you put a sway bar on it controls this around the corners. When your car turns the inside back tire lifts up witch is body roll a sway bar stops that and makes the car go flat around the corner. This is the best thing you can do for the 2.2's handeling.
