I was thinking about ordering one, but not sure of the fitment. Thanks for the installation. How much did that set you back?

Yup, it's about $180 after everything is said and done. I ordered mine today.

hmmm....sounds just like I thought.....added push into the front? is it pushy tight.....you know, front end starts pushin', rolls over alittle too much, then sets real quick and starts to rotate, then....the rear comes around super real quick?

It's not that bad, really. The non-open track savvy consumer would probably not notice it. It does not disrupt the chassis enough to cause any real adverse effects. I would bet a bigger front bar or stiffer front springs would make the car feel even better.

That is a good bar, but ours being 1.0" dia is around 66% stronger, which helps out a lot.

It feels much better, much more stable when taking corners. Worth the price.
