Ok so some of you probably think im retarded but in my endless quest to make the 929 faster around corners i am thinking about some sort of swaybar upgrade.

The question is where can i get one from or is there an alternative?

i have seen on old school rx3 and the like sort of a 'piggy back' setup where they basically use a double swaybar set up..

any ideas?

Nitros you took my idea you punk :P . I've been planning a swaybar upgrade for ever. My plan is to take the stock ones(front and rear) off and give them to a fabriction shop. I was thinking about making the new ones solid and 3-5mm over, that way I could use the stock mounts or upgrade to heavy duty ones form Energy Suspension. My idea should be really nice with my KDM polys.

I'm serious, too.

im talking sway bars Sim, not strut braces.

i am really looking for a viable adjustable alternative to the stock unit. I already have a whiteline swaybar on the rear of the car as well.
