Default Good rear sway bar for street and strip duty?

I am interested in getting a new rear sway bar for my TA. I have been thinking about the larger Suspension Tech. bar that Thunder Racing sells for like $130-140. I like the BMR bar but it is a bit pricey for me.

Thanks.

I have the BMR one it has worked very well for me. 1.49 60fts. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

I had the 1.25" Suspension Techniques rear sway bar on my '98 T/A, and I have one coming for the SS, too. I need all of my ducks in a row for the Thunder Shootout. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> It's one of the beefiest rear sway bars that I could find without going with a "drag" bar (i.e. Wolfe). It also helps out through the corners when you're not running a front sway bar. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> For the money, it's hard to beat.

I have gone 1.49 with the stock one but I'd like to try that solid one that Trevor used to talk about.
