Forgetting the g number, if you can't tell the difference in feel/handling between the stock sways and the F-sport ones, on a lateral testing course, you might wanna check with a doctor :P

I guess that was my point, quoting the g numbers to make the point seemed a little off. Having said that, I can tell the difference between the Stock rear and F-Sport rear. At the track I tend to set up my cars neutral to a bit of OVERSTEER or lose condition which allows for some thottle steer.

The big difference I notice with the rear bar is initial transition into the corner. THe car does not get as upset about the change in direction. This allows the suspension to work as intended for the rest of the turn. A good middle and exit all starts with a great entry!

Suspension setup fine tuning is really a personal choice. My method is to do the primary tuning with shocks and springs first, and then tune in with the bars. I will probably be moving to some coil overs and then see what happens with the front bar.

neither of my cars here had bars...and were damn quick
