It's a quick cheap way to help stop the car from torquing over to the right. You probably knew that already. I believe the instructions say to leave 5 lbs. in it for normal driving. On motor I use about 12 lbs. and when on the bottle about 20 lbs. It does help but I'm not at the power level where a heavy duty sway or drag bar is needed.
