For those looking for the next step in improved handling, we are pleased to release our rear sway bar upgrade for the Audi RS3 (8V / 8Y) & TTRS (8S). Designed around a package with our lowering spring kit, the rear sway bar upgrade will reduce body roll to create a more neutral steering balance. This sway bar upgrade is specifically designed to function with the OEM front sway bar, getting rid of the factory under-steer while allowing enough compliance for a comfortable ride and predictable suspension behavior.
For the ultimate performance, we opted for a 3-position adjustable bar. The three settings offer a stiffness increase from 56% to 113%! Please note that when using the stock end links it is recommended to use the middle hole, to maintain proper suspension geometry. To use the outside holes, a spherical end link is recommended as the geometry will place added stress on the fixed factory link.

Sway Bar - The sway bar is a 23.8mm solid bar that is manufactured in the USA from high quality spring steel. We opted for a solid design, as it ensures that our sway bar will last a lifetime of abuse without risk of breakage or deformation. For increased adjustability in various driving scenarios, we opted for a 3 position adjustable design. Each bar is finished in a subtle gloss black coating for a stock-like appearance.
Billet Brackets - Included with each sway bar is a set of our custom billet brackets. Through CAD design and stress analysis, we developed a stronger alternative to typical stamped brackets. Each bracket is CNC machined, anodized black and finished with a stealth "e".
Upgraded Bushings - The included bushings are designed to minimize noise typically associated with polyurethane bushings. Using a unique interior groove, the bushing is able to better hold and maintain lubricating grease. This ensures continued usage without developing squeaks and creaks.
Grease - Included with each order is a pack of high quality synthetic grease. When combined with our included bushings, this combo ensures continued noise-free usage without the need for frequent re-greasing.
