How much power you think you are going to make. Are you going to be on meth or gas. Nice set up I am working on small tire turbo project as well mine is going to be on race gas.

That's an anti roll bar works basically like a sway bar but more solid n not really to be used too much on the street cause u don't want it to be bent, keeps both wheels planted equally to the ground just in case u didn't know....

Thanks for the tip.

Whether you call it a sway bar or a roll bar they are the same thing. They are a torsion spring. Neither are intended to bend, only twist. Two names for the same part, whether it's installed on a drag car, street car, or a road race car.
