Center Section Recommendations: This 1.25" bar is for hardcore racers on wide race tires in 245mm or wider. For an all around great performing bar for 235-245mm extreme performance street tires or narrower race tires, we recommend looking to our other listing for this same kit with the 1.13" center section as that really hits a nice range of adjustment for this chassis. For SCCA CS trim vehicles, we recommend looking to our other listing for this same kit with the 1.07" bar, since you cannot upgrade the rear sway bar in CS that 1.07" bar tends to balance better with stock rear bar.

FIAT 124 NOTE: May require modifying or replacing the factory intercooler piping to clear this sway bar.

Brian's Application Notes: I admired and admired this setup but we did not start to carry it until I watched an STR competitor change both his front and rear sway bar settings BETWEEN RUNS at an SCCA event. Took him under a minute to change the rear sway setting, and just over a minute at the front...which is amazing. No other sway setup empowers you to change settings as fast as this setup in my experience, making this setup unique for the hardcore racers who want to dial their setup on the fly. Nonetheless, recommended for the REAL Racers, not the average daily driver because the solid links so good for racing can and will eventually rattle.
