So what makes you say that you love it? Care to explain the way the car handles for you now?

I feel more planted in the rear compared to before, especially on bumps and downhill cornering I also feel like I can begin to accelerate out of a hard corner sooner without the rear slipping/coming around.
This is my only suspension mod so far, Stock rollers as well
Sorry no pics my wife took the camera to work with her

I agree with your assessment. I also have the Cusco. I bought an AP1 specifically for the track and put the bar on the otherwise unmodified car. After a couple of sessions, I felt the car was a little too prone towards oversteer...and I am an admitted novice. Also, I was planning to go to R compound tires.

The bar made the car feel much more controllable...probably biased slightly towards understeer. With no other mods, the car was easier to drive fast. I could successfully use trailing-throttle oversteer when needed, without fear of spinning.

I've since added other suspension mods to get the car more balanced, but the Cusco bar is still on the car. Great bar for the price.
