Default CDC Ford Racing Rear Sway Bar

So I was looking into getting a better rear sway bar and I came across this one from CDC:

The price seems pretty good to me. Anyone know if it's a good bar? I couldn't find any more info on it.

For $75 what could it hurt? That is the same one that is on the Shelby GT and any other car that gets the Ford Racing Suspension

Its a touchy subject and it could hurt your suspension quality.
Bigger is not always better unless paired with the proper springs and shocks/struts.
You could be tightening up your rear end so much that opposite side tire lifting can become a BIG problem.

I'm thinking of replacing my Hotchkis with Steeda or Strano brand. I took the car on a road trip to Louisiana and the undulating roads there played hell with the huge hotchkis bars.... they're a bit much.

I'm Steeda dealer, so if you want Steeda bars--that's ok. But they are heavier and not adjustable. Mine are lighter and are adjustable.

Note that if you have certainly LCA brackets (which I do not use on handling cars), you might find you can only use 2 or the 3 adjustments in the rear bar... but that's still more than a non-adjustable bar.
