Question Pettit Sway Bar ???

Does anyone have the Pettit Sway Bar on their FD?

I have one on order. Here's that story, I bought an SMIC duct from Pettit that I ended up not needing. So I returned it and I had to buy something with the store credit, so I opted for the sway bar since my car has a bunch of body roll when I throw it hard into corners. My tire rubs against the fender liner, too.

I am looking for some info on them from guys who already have them installed:

Did you guys notice a dramatic improvement?

Is the ride stiffer/bumpier?

Do I really need to buy reinforment brackets? If so which ones? Got a used set for sale?


Thanks In Advance!,

John

Thanks CYM TKT,

I am hoping, that once I get sway bar installed, my car will "flat turn", or dive less when I corner hard.
