Rear Lower Strut Bars?

Yes I know about the bars, but am wondering now that the Neuspeed is out, how does it compare to the DC and other brands? I know they have different mounting points from each other (judging by the photos from previous posts). Does the new mounting position of the neuspeed play any role in disturbing an exhaust such as not enought room? I woiuld just like to know this cause I was planning on getting the DC, but now I want to learn more about the Neuspeed. Any advice or insights would be a big help. Thanks

It doesn’t go any where near the exhaust, so it should be fine.

well let me correct you on a few things. There is NO lower STRUT bar. Strut bars go across the struts which are located in the back of your engine bay and in the trunk. That is where you spring/struts are mounted to the frame. Sway bars go underneath the car and as far as I know neuspeed doesn't make sway bars for our car. Eibach, Progress, Comptech, and RSX makes sway bars. If you are upgrading your sway bar to anything bigger than 19mm you will have trouble with DC Sports TCS exhaust. I am not sure about other exhausts. Tie bars also go underneath the car. They are only for chassis reinforcement. You have no need for them unless you upgrade your sway bars. Neuspeed does make a rear tie bar as well as DC sports and there are generic ones. In my opinion the expensive ones aren't worth the money. Neuspeed also makes a front cross bar that will help with wheel hop and chassis flex.
