Progress rear sway bar perfromance review

Ok This is my review of the progress rear sway bar on a LS or LT.

rating 1-10

Install I rate it at a 2 because you need to use sockets and a jack But easyier to install then my cai.

I rate handeling at a 10 for people with RWD experince. And I dont siggest it for some one who doesnt.

Fist off if you like the feel of a rwd car then I sugest this sway bar It makes the car go around corners flat and can take corners qwicker. But this is why I dont sigest this to some one who hasnt driven a RWD car. Yes you can take corners quickly but the bar takes all the understeer and doesnt push in the corners so it all goes to the back wich means you fish tail but is still controlable. if you can drive you can take corners qwickly by getting the back loose, now Im not talking drifter losse but loose enough that the sterring wheel feels like mush.

Well thats my review Im not responcible for you hitting a pole or another car keep it at the track.

Thanks for the input, finally someone that answered my question, "does the sway bar loosen the car up?"

I now know what my next mod is

Glade to help It handles realy good at avarage speeds very flat but if you jerk the wheel it will loosen the back up. I also have tenzo drop springs two They also help with cornering.
