I like the Cusco's...

Wrx151 (larry) has a front and rear Cusco set...for $300 (very nice shape)...really though...do you like the color Blue or Purple...(cusco-blue, Helix-Purple)...

Most of the swaybars you see are similar in both design and stiffness...alot of times built by the same manufacturer...and painted/branded...there are differences as well...like Hotchkiss and Cobb...they use bigger diameter/hollow bars...

As you know, you pay for the name often...I do like Cusco products though...quality, research, and performance...they know their stuff...

I have the Perrin RSB and it comes with special heavy duty brackets...just helped my cousin, Dale, and Jarred put theirs on and they are liking it as well...

Wear some junk clothes, go to the next meet, look under the cars and see what people are using...you will see all sorts of colors under there...get an opinion and go for a ride...ask questions man...people here will answer...

Helix make good product for the price/quality.

Cucso is proven.

But I think Helix should do the job as the Cusco...

I just bought the perrin rear sway with the heavy duty mounts and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a quality sway bar. It makes such a huge difference in the handling of the car. Well worth the $$$ and I picked it up for a great price from mauromotorsports.com. Thanks again Brent for all the help with the install!
