I went with the Spohn 25mm stock replacement for one reason. Noise.

Solid mounted swaybar's are great for the track, but transfer alot of noise into the interior.

I'll be doing either a spohn or a wolfe over the winter. Are they loud, yes, do they work, yes. It all depends on what you can tolerate. I tolerate a LM with longtubes... hell, I love the way it sounds, so my opinion of loud is a little off the norm.

What, what was that... I can't hear you. Speak up a bit. Oh, you're already yelling

WILWAXU how much did your 1" sway bar help your 60' and does your car go straight now?
I know the a drag bar would be the way to go, but I still daily drive the car and want something that will give me the best of both worlds and still get the job done at the track.

It certainly leveled my car out. Launches are straight and true. I went 1.49 with it.

I don't have any true direct comparisons on the 60ft times.

IMO, it's the only way to go on a daily driven car.

They're all pretty much the same. Just make sure you have a chassis guy weld it up and make sure it's perfect because that bar is what saves you from having a date w/ a wall. Probably the most important suspension piece on the car.
