I doubt you'll feel any difference between the stock sway bar and the RRM version unless u really bring this car to its limits...therefore i say save your money since u already have a sway bar and go for intake...and don't expect power from this simple mod...like 2 hp max...ultimately, i say save up for forced induction or coilovers+front struct bar

You mean to tell him that he won't feel the difference from a bigger sway bar, but should go for an intake that'll net him virtually zero gain?

Yes, that is exactly what i am saying under most driving circumstances unless u beat this car to hell on corners....and intake will at least begin to help your engine breath...and did u not read the part that said "don't expect power from this simple mod"......the intake is not my personal choice however...i would go for a front strut bar and/or save for forced induction to get real power.

So you would suggest that he spends his money on an intake which he shouldn't expect power from, rather than a sway bar which would help him if he was to push his car to its limits?

I would go for a performance driving program

If your not going for power and decide to work on the suspension. get the progress springs and lower your car. the hanle will be improved in different/better ways than just adding the sway bar. you have an oz like me, we already have a sway bar, just upgrade it later. but still from what i here the sway bar is pretty tight. Roadracemotorsports.com has both im sure you know.
Just my two cents

Hey, no blood on the carpet! Thanks for all the input guys. I'm still undecided, but leaning towards the sway bar and eventually lowering springs/coilovers. Adding some power through intake and exhaust are also attractive, though.

Regardless of what you go for, good luck on your car and most likely, before long, you'll be sporting all our suggestions on your Lancer!
