Any problem with Front Strut Bar?

I just installed Neuspeed front strut bar yesterday and it started makin' clicking noise everytime I step on the gas (Auto trans), but not if I do it slowly. Does anybody have this problem?[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]
I followed the instruction given (without jacking up the car).

did you tight the bolts completely?

did you park your car on a flat surface when installing the strut bar?

I don't have that problem, but I hear a noise from the rear.

I'd try reinstalling it with the car jacked up. There must be a reason they want you to jack it up...perhaps to relieve some tension on the mounting locations?
