I had a similar problem it gave me headaches on short drives, but never did anything about it and I love my exhaust now more than ever. I would like to think the same thing happen to you? Just noticed you also posted about the sway bar haha, I installed super stiff lowering springs and reviews mentioned a big difference but it hard to remember from stock. Did you have anything else on your setup before and after your sway bar? Last edited by Sellars21; 11-25-2012 at 11:04 PM. |

Sounds good to me, looking to keep the car flatter without compromising on ride stiffness in this bumps as I drive a **** ton for work. Lets just say I budget an oil change every month and half.
And your Perrin, I'm guessing 22mm? |

And did you do the bushings yourself? Doing that this month. Probable with next oil change. During the winter it's too cold to do it in my drive way. During the winter I use a local shop with a rated top ten scoob mechanic in Canada. |

22mm seems a little too much. but Be careful with a big rear sway bar. it will cause snap oversteer

But just for the record, what is "snap oversteer" my guess is just spinning out on a turn but I don't know.

for whatever it's worth, I have a 19mm STi sway bar on and love it. I've never driven a subie with a 22mm, so i cant say what the difference between the two would be though. I get some liftoff oversteer, but nothing uncontrolable.

definitely a ***** to deal with as i experienced snap oversteer in my car sunday morning on a damp road with a temp. of around 56. and i'm running only a 16mm rear sway with Stance Coilovers. My tires are pretty much bald, so that might be the reason why my rear swung out Lol I'm getting new tires mounted monday evening tho lol
The settings were around 11F 9R (clicks from soft towards stiff) Remember when we were talking about covering the intake with a thermal blanket? look what i found Hella looks like a towel Last edited by Navysesal; 11-26-2012 at 01:42 PM. |

What tires are you getting? Also do you plan on keeping your front sway bar stock? |
