i guess being the 2nd successful install of these bars, i should say a few words about them. well first off i noticed at least 50 additional hp

uhm.

no seriously though they did just what i expected, a couple of hard turns right away revealed a difference how the rear end felt. i dont know the terms the pros use but it feels less front wheel driven now, like the back end actually has traction in hard turns (best i could do were a couple 35-40 mph right handers so far) the rear tires definately felt more like they were rolling and in traction through them instead of just sliding in the rear. the shorter bar is not adjustable, like the fut set, but as eric says, unless your alignment is already off, it will not change it. i had an alignment check done recent at les schwab which confirms this. also i think the black short bar looks a lot more discreet than the fut set i had (but painting one of his is a breeze anyway...) so far not one complaint regarding these bars
