We're all here to learn and share. Even when I disagree, I still learn something. Car forums are one of the BEST communities.

Sadly, when you click on the actual link, it's for a different car, not for Stinger

I installed both sway bars on my G70 AWD this week. I intended to do both at the same time, but I ran out of time after I did the rear on Thursday, so I finished the front today. I got to drive it with just the rear bar, then with both. Here's my impression - after installing the rear, I couldn't feel any difference when driving normally, but when I pushed it, it absolutely made a difference - I had could initiate a oversteer much easier with the throttle, which has been difficult with the PS4's in this heat.
The front bar is noticeable just driving normally. The steering feels more immediate and the suspension is stiffer - I think that may be the urethane bushings. I purposely drove on bad roads where one side of the road is worse and I don't notice any additional harshness - which I was worried about, since the roads are terrible around here.
The car simply corners better with the addition of the front bar. The weigh transfer is quicker, so it's easier to get set in a line, and then it feels like you're on rails.
This was the best money I've ever spent on a performance upgrade.

I just got my front bar on today, so I haven't got a chance to drive in the rain.

My interest in a front bar is being resurrected by this conversation too.
(edit: and I bit. $179.95 from K8 Stinger Store. This should be fun. I'm sure that a year and a half in with the rear bar only that I will feel any differences.)

Awesome! Tell me how it feels when you get it. I was stock for 2+ years, and the rear sway was an immense improvement. I'd like to hear your opinions on the front after driving with the rear sway for so long.

I think it will be a nice upgrade Even though I have AWD.

The car is gonna feel twitchy the first couple of days after doing the front bar. The turn in is immediate.

Isn't that another way of saying "induced oversteer"? A stiffer bar in the back induces oversteer. Putting a stiffer bar on the front, after having one on the back (for a year and a half), should reduce oversteer (turn-in). I'm expecting to feel a return to more neutral steering, and a more stable steering feel at "spirited" speeds through curves, i.e. less tendency to feel those front tires biting into a tighter turn than I am trying for with the steering wheel.

I can only compare my driving experience to the stock setup, but I find the ride very neutral with the Eibachs setup front soft/rear firm. Handling is precise but not jerky and cornering is entirely flat. The ride is very secure in standard driving and satisfyingly lively in Sport mode. I suspect most drivers will be happy either with both set to soft or front soft/rear firm as I have them set.

UPS just came and went. I have an appointment to get an "oil change" Tuesday morning, the 25th Instant. Oh, and get the front bar put in too.My interest in a front bar is being resurrected by this conversation too.
