Isn't this what the factory torsion beam does?

Yeah, it helps to add weight. How does bolting on a bar to another bar help? I guess TTR is smarter than GM, or some people don't care about spending money. It would be nice to have comparison times on an autocross or road course for with and without the "additional" bar.

It's more like GM figures profit by pennies per part and isn't going to add something that the general buyer doesn't care about. Those of us that do want a firmer suspension will gladly spend the extra to add the bar and make the car perform better. The average soccer mom that takes her kids to school in an HHR would probably never push the car enough to enjoy the benefits of the additional bar.

Sorry to be off topic. Aaron, the solid engine mount is NOT for an automatic? If I read right, it looks as if it is only for a manual transmission.

Thanks
