What sway bar kit to buy?

[ThatSNninety5]

Looking to buy a new sway bar kit and want to know what is the right one to get, my car is making a decent amount of power probably 300whp. I just installed Bilstein B6 shocks on the car and my rear end is an 8.8 from a GT500, its built and has 3.73’s in it.

Street, track, drag?

Currently a daily driver but have plans to turbo it, make enough power to take it to the strip here and there but mainly daily driving

I seem to like the steeda bars

There's not a one size fits all sway bar improvement and more isn't automatically better. Sn95 cobras had smaller front sway bars than gt's from the factory, for example. Weight transfer is wildly different depending upon your ride height and some amount of front/rear weight transfer under cornering is drivers preference. Lots of people who autocross remove their sway bars entirely.

What is yours doing or not doing that you want to change?

If I were you, I’d call MM, explain your plans and get their input. LCA’s, torque & Pan hard bars may also come into play because those occasional trips to the strip will best he served planning for hard starts.

But again, darkhorse and Musturd know a TON about this, so see if you can get some help and education from them… either by PM’s or if they chime in on this thread

If i remember correctly, the GT had a HOLLOW swaybar while the Cobra had a solid bar

Well the rear one isnt even there anymore right now, it was snapped on the driver side so I removed it, and the front is just stock so Id like to get it to match the rear one that I get or get one that compliments it well

I have a Cobra front bar available. It no longer fits on my car with the turbo piping in the way

I made this video to help people choose the right sway bar(s) for their autocross cars. There's a lot of information in it that will help you make a decision. If you have any questions, please ask.
