Are you the one that's driving around the Bellevue area with your white 997TT? Black roof, chrome wheels, etc.

I've seen you driving around the area a couple times. Really hard to miss your car. I drive the blue 997TT although not much. I have the H&R sways in mine along with the Bilstein damptronics and love this setup.

I'm also running the PSS10 and H&R sways, I notice the difference. Much better than stock

Cross posting from my other thread:

H&R or GMG sways: I have no idea how they are different from each other with respect to stiffness/performance. The only reason I went with GMG (actually made by Eibach) was at the time I was going to go with the whole GMG package (later changed my mind to Bilstein PSS10).

GMG Front Sway Bar: 3 settings: soft, middle, stiff. The GMG front soft setting is 10% stiffer than stock, middle 20%, and stiff 30%.
GMG Rear Sway: 3 settings: soft, middle, stiff. The GMG rear soft setting is 20% stiffer than stock, middle around 35%, and stiff is 50%.

Fabryce of GMG gave me these numbers over the phone, off the top of his head, so accuracy is close but may not be 100%. (Fabryce please correct me if necessary.)

In my opinion and what I use my car for... yes. If I really wanted to enhance it more for track I would do the rear Agency Power control arms, TRG Toe Links, and then get a full corner balance and run some Michelin Cup tires.

For the average driver (me) and for a street application, I think you would be hard pressed to tell the difference between the Eibach and H&R sway bars. It's the coil overs, various links, and corner balancing that will make the difference.

Just wanted to chime in..

There is a signifigant difference between our bars and the H&R bars.

Our bars offer much more torsional rigidity over the H&R set up.

We have developed these bars with Eibach and this is a GMG excusive design and product...


Sway bars are availabe through GMG directly , Dan @ Vivid usually stocks these as well...
