APS Twin Turbo Questions
I bought a 35mm sway bar from a member installing one of you guys kits. He sold the 35mm bar because he said it wouldn't fit with you guys' kit.
I am a motivated and inspired individual and I was thinking if I wanted it to fit, I'd make it fit. How does you guys' kits work with modified suspension f-bodies?
I want my car lowered and I want to keep my 35mm sway bar. Will it work?

the sway bar is attached by 2 clamps, and 2 end links. worst case scenario you just have to put some spacers and new bolts in. If you want it to be then there isn't much difference in the sway bars. unless it's shaped funny it's less than a centimeter.

Yea I put my sway bars on myself, I just don't have the turbo kit to look at. I personally wouldn't mind denting in the piping just a little to make my sway bars fit. I talked to vengeance today and they said the sway bars can be forced to fit, but they weren't sure on the lowering part.
also what kind of times in the 1/4 do aps otherwise stock f-bodies run? Top Speed?
How much are installs?

I was also thiniking you could cut the tubing where it hits and put silicone couplers and some clamps and that should also do the job. I may do that on my car or might spacer and do the endlinks.I have a big hotchkis bar currently left off as didn't want to dent the pipes.Still hearing its maybe not such a good idea to do the spacers and endlink thing.My car is dropped minimal with slp eibach springs. Think about 3/4 to 1 inch drop.

I think im the one that sold you the sway bar LOL I think i had a bad welded APS drivers side pipe which sat 1'' lower then the passanger side.I ended up redoing it myself and now the pipe sits above the K member now so i actually could run the bigger sway bar now if i wanted too. Heres a pic of the drivers APS pipe that i redid.
