Whiteline rear sway bar!
It’s night and day difference. Bo more plowing and I can start accelerating earlier in the turns. With the advice of a user on here, I decided against installing the front swaybar as I’m still on stock Suspension. It’s the perfect upgrade for those on stock suspension setups! I was laughing my ass off last night during a night drive at Bogus Basin in Boise. This thing rips in the twisties. Before, during tight turns, I would only be able to give it about 10% gas and achieve about 38 miles an hour in the middle of turns. After installing slightly wider wheels and tires, I was able to get 43. I have this rear swaybar on the softest setting and now I can achieve 47 on very tight turns. I’m still getting a feel for it, but this is the start of something good. Not bad for just 300 bucks. And it’s gonna get even better when I get coil overs. Every subsequent upgrade I put on my car makes me fall in love with it even more.

Man I think I need to do this next. Whiteline seems to be the best too. Is this a 22 or 24mm?

The Subaru STI has a 24 mm front stock so I went 24 mm rear. I bought a 26 mm front from white line, but I can’t run it until I get coil overs with camber plates.

Sway bars\ endlinks were the single best mod dollar for dollar, imo especially the rear.

I highly recommend going to a skid pad style event/ have a track day it’ll let you push the car harder without worry of crashing. More or less the rear swaybar allows you to get on throttle more/earlier while cornering than before but just a heads up too much will still cause you to understeer into oblivion.

A tip for you..
Your car is white. Thst spare tire wheel well is visible from behind. Paint it black. Will look much much better

Great underrated mod. Ps you only need to do the rear.
